Schools are defined as institutions generally administered by a Board and comprised of classrooms with teachers (not facilitators) where students are sent by their parents to be instructed (not self-paced), regardless of the number of grades. (Although this definition does not include home schools, it is not intended as a sign of opposition toward home schooling.)
