This varies from parish to parish. However, usually the only qualification is that the sponsors just need to have been confirmed in the Catholic Church.
Sponsors are Catholic because they should be role models of the faith. They should be able to help you in the future as a Catholic.

Yes, you can,as long as the parents intend to raise child as Catholic and attend religious education classes, etc. The baptisng minister (priest/deacon) needs to have a founded hope this will happen. Parents should consider becoming Catholic in RCIA program. At least one of the baptism sponsors (godparent) needs to be catholic.

Catholics renounce Satan when they are baptized, if they are too young to do this, then their parents and sponsors renounce Satan for them.
I believe there is at least one catholic school per 2 public schools. This is just an assumption that I've made judging by my area. Since most Catholic schools are sponsored by a local Catholic parish, they are usually located near the church of the parish that sponsors them and usually bear the same name as the parish church.
Canonical Old Roman Catholic Church was created in 1966.
