What North Carolina’s list covers
Every conventional private school open in North Carolina, as its Division of Non-Public Education lists those that filed a notice of intent to operate; home schools are on a register of their own and aren’t here. NCES’s survey counted 703 private schools in North Carolina in 2021-22. DNPE’s list gives no number for a school, so each record’s number is Hearth Record’s own.
