  1. Gather a Committee-One person can't do it alone. A planning committee should be formed and comprised of community leaders, teachers, parents and concerned citizens. This committee may need to form subcommittees to focus on individual areas, such as budgets, employment, enrollment, facilities, etc. Once the committee has been formed, members can then meet periodically to discuss goals and accomplishments along the way.

  2. Decide on the Type of School-Before a private school can be started, a goal or vision must be set. What type of private school are people interested in? Will the school house kindergarten through twelfth grade, or will it only focus on the elementary grades? Will the school be affiliated with an educational philosophy, such as Montessori, or will it be associated with a church denomination? Will the school be a day school or a boarding school? These questions must be answered before any more planning can begin.

  3. Look at Other Schools-One of the best ways to start a private school is to look at other schools with similar goals and student bodies. Committee members should study several other private school models, paying close attention to the areas of success and the areas of failure. Members can then report back to the rest of the group on their findings. Ideas may be formed based on this research.
