Yes. Every parent works to transfer their sincerely-held beliefs to their children because every parent wants their child to succeed.
"How do I raise a 'good' person?" implicitly indicates the parent's intention to transfer their own moral and social values, which comprise the core of religion, to the child (and there's nothing wrong with that; that's how it's supposed to work).
This type of ethereal, fundamentally subjective teaching is religious education. A mature mythos around the core is not the element that causes people to value religion, and discarding that mythos cannot automatically make a religious sentiment non-religious.
