Host: Are there different kinds of private high schools?

Andrew Battaile: Just as public schools are not the same, private high schools are very different from each other. You can have a coed or single sex schools. You can have boarding schools versus day schools, you could have bigger schools and larger schools. They are very different from each other and no one school is just like another school. So if you want to apply to a private high school and you think well if I applied to school A then it is just like school B and that is also a private school, I won't need to do my research that is actually really wrong, you definitely want to look at each school closely and individually.
