Tips for Starting a Private School Business in Georgia

  • Accreditation takes 2-3 years but determines whether your tuition qualifies for tax credits and whether colleges recognize your diplomas.
  • Your first 50 students are the hardest. Most private schools break even around 80-120 students. Plan for 2-3 years of operating losses.
  • Facility costs dominate. Leasing a church or community center cuts your startup cost by 60-80% vs. building or buying.
  • Teacher salaries run 15-30% below public school equivalents. You'll attract mission-driven educators, but benefits and culture have to compensate.
