[quote=Anonymous]As PP said, all Independent Schools are Private, but not all Private Schools are Independent. Independent Schools are non-profit, accredited, and governed by an independent board of trustees. They may or may not be religious and are members of the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS). Private Schools that are not Independent may meet some of those criteria but not all: for example, Diocese Catholic Schools are non-profit and accredited, but governed by the Catholic Church. Despite its name, Basis Independent McLean is accredited, but is for profit and governed by Spring Education Group and therefore not truly independent. And there are some really bad actor private schools out there that aren't accredited. Always make sure any private school you are interested in is at least accredited. [/quote]
