In most cases, a checkbox for religion has to do with
a) Eligibility for faith-specific scholarships
b) Alerting the appropriate campus chaplain of the pending arrival of a student

In your case, neither of these apply, so you can just leave the space blank.

If you apply to institutions that require essays and your journey away from the faith tradition of your birth has been important for you, this could be a possible essay topic. But given that you are currently attending a faith-based high school, it is perfectly OK to keep this private for now.
