I don't remember learning about all religions in Catholic school, but you certainly learn about the 3 major Abrahamic religions. You can't understand Christianity without some background knowledge of Judaism, and you can't understand modern Christian politics without knowledge of Islam and protestant movements.

So yeah, you do learn about some other religions, but Christianity and Catholicism is the still the central theme. Very little is taught about Eastern religion, although I think we did watch a couple of videos. Then again, like I said, my Catholic education ended in grade 9, so maybe in highschool you learn more about other religions.
