Is opening a private school a feasible endeavour? I think it depends on who you can convince to sign their kids up to your school etc. If marketed correctly, and run right, any school will be profitable. And since there are so many parents out here dissatisfied with the mediocrity of the school system, yes, it's feasible. My daughter is currently taking classes through Calvertschool.org Is it profitable for the school administrators? I have no idea. Is it non-profit? Again, I have no idea, but I don't think so.

As for the school you suggest being non-profit... I'm not seeing how that is a draw to the parent sending his kid or not. What the school teaches, the core curriculum, how the school deals with marks and credits and whether or not it is accredited carried a lot more weight when we decided to send our daughter to this school.

Hope these thoughts are useful to you.
