Triad Independent & Private Schools Directory
![](https://triadmomsonmain.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/Calvary-banner.png)
If you are considering a private school for your child, there are many factors to consider. For instance, are the academics top-notch? Are the classes a good size? What are the experiences of the teachers? Is the private school small enough? Likewise, is it big enough? Does it offer religious education? Additionally, is the athletic program at the private school strong? The questions can go on and on.
Fortunately there are numerous great private schools in the Triad. Therefore, in an attempt to help find a good match for your family, we compiled a list of private schools recommended by our readers. We can update this list at any time, so if there is a private school we did not include, or if the statistics below have changed, please email us to let us know.
Find out more about each private school by visiting their website, and be sure to check our TMoM event calendar for upcoming Open Houses.
