Yeah, they did what they thought was right. Now I "fell away" from the religious teaching I had and my mother could never figure out why, even though I told her a million times (or did it just seem like a million times). My parents are gone too for many years now. It's funny, the school "indoctrinates" you as a little kid, day in and day out, but that doesn't mean it works. A lot of the kids in that school grew up to be non-religious just like me.
There is one thing about that school I went to though that maybe others didn't do. They had us visit on our own about 5 other religions of our choosing, like about 7th grade or whatever. So I went to Lutheran, Greek Orthodox and some other religions, and went to their service and talked to their ministers about the differences in their services and beliefs from what I learned. It was a very nice and educational experience.
