The Association serves and strengthens its schools by setting standards of academic quality and ethical conduct, by providing for the professional growth of faculty, administrators, and trustees, and by promoting ra- cial, ethnic, and socio-economic diversity. Member schools vary widely, ranging in size from 32 to 1819 students; providing cam- puses that are urban, suburban or rural; enrolling student bod- ies that are coeducational or single sex; and offering boarding and day facilities. The majority of schools are secular, but many are religiously affiliated. About Independent Schools Independent schools are pre-collegiate, non-profit institutions that are independently governed by Boards of Trustees and supported by tuition revenue, charitable contributions, and endowment income, rather than by taxes or major funding from religious organizations.
