Independent Schools
A private school or independent school is a school not administered or funded by the government, unlike a public school. Private schools are schools that are not dependent upon national or local government to finance their financial endowment.

Roughly one in 10 U.S. families have chosen to enroll their children in private school for the past century. Some pri ...
