I went to a private boys school from 8th grade on. It was founded in 1875 and supported by the Schwenkfelder Church. One of my ancestors, N. B. Grubb was a Mennonite minister and sat on the board.
We had "Chapel" M, T, T, F. Wed and Sat were half days and no chapel. Different local preachers would often speak and in-lieu of one of them the Headmaster or Dean would speak.
But---that was not a public school and anyone not comfortable with it could leave
We also had a Mennonite school but that was further away---like 10 miles
