Parents can choose public school education programs to educate children through kindergarten to the 12th grade or use private school education. Severe funding shortages have made parents rethink using the schooling system that educated their parents and consider private schools because funding was arranged through tuition paid annually. The facilities at private schools are significantly better than those in public schools mainly because the private school facilities are newer.
Many parents objected when prayer was excluded from morning devotions at public schools. Private schools are usually based on Christian teaching principles or Catholicism.

The faculty at private schools would expect Christian decorum of all students while in and out of the classroom. Students in private school are held accountable for homework from the seventh grade on, and the grade school years would be devoted to regimenting a child to study hard and play hard while learning the elementary lessons that will be used throughout life. Christian principles forgive those who fail but expect children to try, and every effort will be made to help a child succeed in life, if the principles taught while in school are applied to adult life situations.
The course load experienced while achieving a private school education is heavy. Some children balk when given so many courses of study to do homework in on every day of the week. The push for children to excel in life is the basis of such extreme schedules, and children grow accustom to accepting pressures and thus are more successful later on in life when business interests require adults to make snap decisions based on the education principles learned in private school.
Private school education costs will include tuition every month, and parents must pay book fees and enrollment fees for every child in a family that attends the school. Discounts are applied on miscellaneous fees charged to families with more than one child, but tuition rates are rarely reduced. In addition to those expenses, parents will pay tuition for eleven months of every year, even though the children are on vacation from school during summer.
A private school education does not participate in the vacation schedules that public schools system follow. Private schools do wear uniforms that must be tailored to fit the child and some Christian private schools require children to wear shorts underneath uniform skirts throughout the many years until graduation. Dress styles will change from jumpers in grade school to shirts and skirts in middle school level classes. Shoe styles change too from casual oxford styles for grade school levels to loafers once the child reaches the 7th grade.
Intramural sports are encouraged in the private school education programs to help children develop their greatest potential. Private school offers private music lesson to those that are creative artists, and part of the education process will allow students to take classes in band and music history, and private school education principles require that students learn a foreign language each year.
