So you’re hunting for the perfect school for your daughter. You’ve decided you definitely want to choose one of the private schools in metro Detroit, and now your family has come to the conclusion that an all-girls school would be a great fit for your child academically and environmentally. Whether you’re looking for elementary or secondary girls’ private schools in metro Detroit, these all-girls private schools are worth considering.
Note on costs: Private schools don’t receive money from the state school funds, so they are financed through corporate gifts and grants, religious institutions (if they’re parochial) and tuition from those who attend. Fees vary greatly – from $1,000 to as much as $30,000 a year. However, don’t assume that a school is out of your financial range. Most offer scholarships, for both academic excellence or financial hardship. Check with the school you’re interested in sending your child to find out what the cost will be to attend.
