What is the Student-Teacher Ratio in a Christian School?

Parents in one area of the country were delighted with the “small” classes of 28 students in the Christian school, compared to the classes of 35 or more in the local public schools. But what is the student-teacher ratio in a Christian school? The student-teacher ratio is calculated using the total number of teaching employees, not counting the number of children that are actually in a class. This means that class sizes can vary in a three-division school, just as the child-to-teacher ratio in preschool is also very low. For classes lower than kindergarten, different rules apply and require one adult for every 8 to 12 children.

This ensures that each student receives the attention they need to learn and grow. The student-teacher ratio is an important factor to consider when choosing a school for your child. A lower ratio means more individual attention for each student, which can lead to better academic performance and social development. When looking at Christian schools, it's important to research their student-teacher ratio and compare it to other schools in your area.

This will help you make an informed decision about which school is best for your child's needs.
