[quote=Anonymous]Depending on student headcount, you need an on-site or closely-available school nurse. You must have a separate office, and parents can't volunteer to work with some classes of student info (there's always a debate as to whether the Buckley Amendment/FERPA applies to a completely privately-funded school, but privacy statutes and HIPAA certainly do apply). If you're going to be a tax-exempt non-profit, you'll have to adopt non-discrimination policies. You'll need to obtain private accreditation from AISGW or VAIS, which will entail on-site visits etc. An office-rental arrangement might or might not work. Any landlord is going to want advance security beyond a month or two worth of rent -- these are risky ventures, and most fail. And the insurance and permitting requirements are substantial. [/quote]
