Why don't private schools take star tests?

Because Star Tests are state tests that measures how much a student has learned in public school (Which is funded by the state). So if a Public school scored high, they get better and more funding, and if they scored less, they get less or their funding won't change. And private schools don't have to take the Star Tests because they get funding from their students, so they don't need the State's money.


Is the school board an executive branch of government?

No, it is a state branch. The city decides how it will district it's local public schools, and then elections are held in each school district for voters to elect who will be on the school board. The local school boards then report to their state's department of education, and the state's department reports to the Department of Education in Washington, D.C. Though it may seem like it's a branch of the federal government, it's only the federal funding that come from D.C. It is up to the state's to determine their standards and handles where the federal funding and state funding will go. This is why there is no national standard of education, only the No Child Left Behind act that determines the amount of federal funding given out.

What is a public library for schools?

The school media center, or the school library. The differences between public and school libraries are funding, location and audience. A public library serves, you guessed it, the public. Their audience is "everyone," including students. They may be located near a school or not, but usually are fairly accessible, and are funded by municipal appropriation. A school library is located within a school, and can be the size of one classroom, several classrooms or even be a separate building. It's funded by the school district, and is aimed at students and teachers.


How frequently is Japanese school cleaned?

It depends completely on whether it is a public or private school and whether you mean the WHOLE school or individual classrooms. For public school in individual classrooms, I do know that it is the students responsibility to clean the room at the beginning and end of each day. Students are assigned certain tasks and assigned "clean up duty." This happens mostly due to lack of funding for public schools. As for private, they usually do have more funding and can sometimes afford janitorial staff, but even then some schools still assign students "clean up duty."
