Benefits of a Private Education

From the time your child is born, you consider where you will send them to school. Private educations stand out for a handful of key reasons that include:

• MORE INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION due to smaller class sizes, creating a more tightly knit environment.

• TEACHERS hired by subject matter with advanced degrees beyond an education degree in addition to extensive professional development.

• LESS BUREAUCRACY because private schools don't have to abide by certain state regulations and teachers can spend less time on mandated paperwork and more on instruction.

• CHARACTER EDUCATION is often incorporated into a private education including teaching values such as honesty, respect, responsibility and service to others.

Public, Private ... What's the Difference?

While all children in the United States are guaranteed a free education at their local public school, many families weigh private school options for their children.

• TRADITIONAL PUBLIC SCHOOLS are taxpayer funded, tuition free and they must adhere to standards set by a school district or state board of education.

• PRIVATE SCHOOLS are known for being selective, religiously a liated or sometimes both, and charge tuition rather than receive public money. In addition to tuition dollars, private schools may be funded by a combination of donations, endowments or grants from other private sources.
