Private Schools In Connection With State Vouchers

By Janet Young


Private schools are not under any governmental or state administration. They charge tuition fees from the students rather than depending on the mandatory taxation by government funding. In some schools, students may be able to get scholarships which can help in lessening their cost, but the scholarship will be dependent on the performance of a student, whether he or she is maintaining a grade or has talents. The kind of scholarships may include sport, art, or academic scholarships.

The tuition fees may vary depending on the school and factors such as the location, the parents willingness to pay, and as well as the financial endowment of school. High tuition fees are being used to pay the teachers with high salaries. It is also used for providing better environments, small number of students in a class, and also for some facilities such as libraries, computer, and science laboratories. Most Orlando Florida private schools are boarding schools or military academies which are privately owned.

Religiously affiliated and denominational are sub classifications of these type of schools. Most of them offer religious education and as well as usual subjects for their expression of beliefs, traditions, and faith. The denominational type bases their belief on their founder, while still having academics and religion. A Roman Catholic School can also be referred to as parochial schools.

An independent school is an alternative for education which is privately financed. The school has no regulations on the state rules. In religious school, religious classes and religious courses are being added to which are already provided by public school. Special assistance is also a type of education specialized for handicapped students who may need specific type of care.

Some private education now are becoming more dependent on voucher programs. These programs offer payments of all or part of the tuition of disabled students and of families with low income. There are some critics about these vouchers that they are diverting the money from public to private institutions. And this seems to be very unfair according to some people since the pupils are not being tested the same in both types and they have different rules for the accountability of the teachers.

According to some research, about 45 percent of institutions which are owned privately depends half of their students to scholarship state vouchers. 70 percent of religiously affiliated is included and who have a central focus on religion. Some parents still agree about the idea.

There are groups of students prefer being in this type of institution. This is because some of them can benefit from this, and this is one reason of why it became popular. Some parents would also agree on this since they always believe on education and faith.

Another problem of some parents is that their disabled children are being joined with those who are already developing. So because of this, the teacher may need to slow down their curriculum to be able for some pupils to catch up. The teachers must also think about the level of knowledge the children can have.

Most institutions are very dependent for scholarships that specializes the disabled children needs. Nowadays, many institutions are running both types, either disabled or not. But those best known institutions are rarely connected with the vouchers.
