The question of how to educate a child is one of the most important a parent can ask.

• Many parents struggle with the basic choice of public vs. private school.
• Parents do not want to incur unnecessary expenses if they will not ultimately benefit their child.
• After all, many public schools do an excellent job of educating students.

While it is true that public schools do not have tuition costs compared with private schools where tuitions run, on average, from $30,000 to $50,000 per year, the can still far outweigh the costs depending on the local options parents may face.

• Private schools challenge their students academically, expose them to clearer value systems, give greater access to teachers, and allow them to feel safer than at a local public school.
• When you do decide to pursue private schooling for your child, start the research process early.
• Admission to private schools can be competitive, and finding a school that is a perfect fit for your child, where he or she will also be accepted, may take some time.

A Higher Bar

A major advantage to private education is that your child will likely be challenged to a higher academic standard.

• Private schools tend to be more academically rigorous than public schools.
• Private school students may have to meet more criteria to keep up their grade point averages.
