Resource Abstract:
description: The Private School Universe Survey, 2005-06 (PSS 2005-06), is a study that is part of the Private School Universe program. PSS 2005-06 (https://nces.ed.gov/surveys/pss/) is a cross-sectional survey that collects data on private elementary and secondary schools, including religious orientation, level of school, length of school year, length of school day, total enrollment (K-12), race/ethnicity of students, number of high school graduates, number of teachers employed, program emphasis, and existence and type of kindergarten program. The study was conducted using mail questionnaires and telephone follow-up of all private schools in the United States. The PSS universe consists of a diverse population of schools. It includes both schools with a religious orientation (e.g., Catholic, Lutheran, or Jewish) and nonsectarian schools with programs ranging from regular to special emphasis and special education. The studys unweighted and weighted response rates were both 94 percent. Key statistics produced from PSS 2005-06 are on the growth of religiously affiliated schools, the number of private high school graduates, the length of the school year for various private schools, and the number of private school students and teachers.; abstract: The Private School Universe Survey, 2005-06 (PSS 2005-06), is a study that is part of the Private School Universe program.
