Millions of school children in the United States participate in christian education every day. During the past four decades, christian education has taken a prominent role among independent schools, adopting the day school model as opposed to the boarding school approach. And christian education is continuing to expand. Christian schools for parents of all income levels have started up all over the country.

Many private schools just focus on elementary education, but the private high school is also growing in popularity as an option for Christian education. A Norfolk private school often provides parents with more control over their child’s education. Christian schools can also give kids a better chance to get involved in school activities and get to know the school staff.

A private day school can also be more flexible when it comes to teaching electives since they do not have the same certification requirements of some states. At their best these schools allow kids to find new avenues for creativity and exploration.

Christian schools can be financially taxing for a family budget. But in the long run a private day school may be a wise investment. Their size and flexibility allows them to have a curriculum which does not have to treat every student as though he or she is the same as everyone else.
