Every year, in autumn, about 50 million children start their school year in more than 100,000 high schools in the United States. More than 3 million teachers five days a week teach representatives of various races and nationalities living in the country. About 85% of students attend public schools funded by taxpayers, and the remaining 15% attend private schools, in which parents themselves pay for the education of their children (see table 3). On average, four out of five private schools are controlled by church organizations, synagogues, or various religious groups. Here, along with traditional subjects (mathematics, language, history, geography, etc.), other disciplines are taught.), Religious courses are included in the curriculum (such subjects are not taught in public schools).
