According to the National Center for Education Statistics, there were 27, 223
private education institutions in America during the 1999-2000 school year.
There are approximately 30,400 private schools in America for the 2006-2007
school year. The total number of private schools for the 1999-2000 school
year can be further segmented. Catholic schools accounted for 8,102 of the
27, 223 total private schools. Another 13,268 schools were classified as
“other religious,” and nonsectarian schools represented yet another 5,853.
In 1999-2000, there were 5,262,849 students enrolled in private schools with
404,066 teachers. Contrast this with the 2006 projected private school
enrollment figure of 6,419,000. “Eighty-four percent of private school
students attend religiously-affiliated schools, and eighty percent of those
schools have fewer than three hundred students” (Council for American
Private Education, 2006). Forty-two percent of these schools are located in
central cities. Another forty percent of them are located in urban areas or
large cities.
Some states contain higher concentrations of private schools than do
others. The states listed below are a ranking of private schools with the
highest enrollment in descending order.
State Number of Private School Students

2. New York 475,942
3. Pennsylvania 339,484

7. Texas 227,645
8. New Jersey 198,631
9. Michigan 179,579
10. Maryland 144,131
The average private school had 193 students in 1999-2000. Among private
schools, eighty percent had enrollments of less than 300. Private Catholic
schools had an average enrollment of 315 students. The average
enrollment among religious schools was 141 and 144 for nonsectarian
schools.
In order to properly service Christian schools by delivering relevant statistical
information about the area, a detailed synopsis of the existing state of their
security, and a rate-and-rank from highest-impact, lowest-cost to highest-
cost, lowest impact while covering operational expenses including back-
office processing and assessor travel, the market price for conducting a site
security assessment in private schools is $100 per enrolled student with a
100 student minimum. However, SAFE School provides these services for a
fraction of the market cost. Call or email us today for pricing!
Society demands that employees be protected through unions and
regulations such as OSHA. America’s educational institutions and the
foundation and hope for tomorrow deserve the same courtesy – to learn in a
secure environment. The extended challenge to parents around the country
is to rise up and demand that schools address the need. The first step to
addressing the issue of school safety is to have a full understanding of the
current state of security assessed by an independent, professional site
security organization.

Security Assessments for Educators

| SAFE School assesses all aspects of the building and its safety and security including policies, procedures, and staff interviews. However, contracting SAFE's services in no way guarantees that your school will not have a security breach or crisis. It is SAFE's goal to document, point out, and make aware potential areas of vulnerability to better prevent a crisis from happening. SAFE is not responsible for any school crisis of the schools it assesses since it does not require the safety and security enhancements it recommends to be implemented. |
