17 Benefits of Sending Your Child to Private School

Flexibility


A private school can accommodate the particular needs of your family in ways that many public schools cannot. For instance, if a child contracts an illness like mononucleosis in May and cannot complete final exams, a school might allow that student to take the exams over the summer under the supervision of a teacher. If a family wants to spend a year abroad, the student might be granted a leave of absence and permitted to return for the following academic year.

Paying Customer Status


Because you pay tuition every year, a private school must treat you, to some extent, as a customer. If something goes wrong, or you have a serious concern, you should be able to get a meeting quickly with a teacher or administrator. You may not always get what you want out of that meeting, but you concerns should be heard and responded to with respect.

Travel Programs


A good private school will send groups of students on education and service trips to places like Italy, Guatemala, or China. For example, an orchestra might perform in Vienna and Budapest, or students might paint a school building in rural Tanzania.

Frequent Needs Assessments


Many of the better independent schools administer the ERB (or similar) assessment tests each year and share these results with parents. Unlike with some “high-stakes” public school tests, ERB results do not, in one year, lead to drastic consequences. That is, test results are used as an indicator of need and typically not as a reason to promote or hold back a student.

Networking for Parents


At many private schools, parents can make valuable social and professional contacts. Field trips, fundraisers, and school social activities can allow parents to meet other successful people in business, law, entertainment, and other lucrative and high-profile fields.
