If you have a strong foundation in Sikhi, going to a Christian school should not rock your faith. I went to a Catholic girls school my whole life. Sure it will make you think about God and everything.. for me, it helped me appreciate my own religious identity and it helped me respect theirs. It is actually kind of like a test, growing up in an environment where there is no one to grow in faith with. But i guess family really matters. Because I come from a Gursikh family, there was also a lot of support from home. And when my parents used to come to school on parents day, I could never contain my excitment. I always felt so proud holding my Dad's hand. What I'm trying to say is, if you believe then nothing can make you turn away from what you think is right. and you already have an understanding of who you are and about Sikhi. I got through it even though i knew the Morning Offering by heart before I even knew what the meaning of the Mool Mantra that i recited at home was. Go pursue the better education that you deserve and allow yourself to be tested in faith for when you emerge smiling at the end, you'll be stronger and have more confidence in what you believe in. Good luck.
