Exploring South Carolina's Private Education Sector. EdChoice Brief. [School Survey Series]
Catt, Andrew D.; Shaw, Michael
EdChoice
"Exploring South Carolina's Private Education Sector is the ninth entry in the "School Survey Series." This brief synthesizes information about South Carolina's private schools from a survey conducted by EdChoice. These survey data, which include South Carolina private schools' open seats, tuition and fees, regulatory concerns, and interest in school choice programs, paint a clearer picture of the state's private school landscape. Key findings include: (1) South Carolina private schools have open seats, and the majority serve students with special needs and provide financial assistance to low-income families; (2) Many South Carolina private school leaders are familiar with education savings accounts (ESAs), and most would consider participating in such a program; (3) About one-third of South Carolina private school leaders still do not know about tax-credit scholarships; and (4) South Carolina private school leaders are wary of the regulations school choice programs might bring.
