Religions and private schools receive little or no support from public taxes in the United States. As a result, they are more expensive to attend. The religious schools in America are usually nm by churches.  Therefore they tend to be less expensive than private schools. When there is free education available to all children in the United States, why do people spend money on private schools? Americans offer a great variety of reasons for doing so.
