church-run schools

Faith-based academies

Schools operated by religious institutions, typically offering education alongside faith-based instruction.

These range from Catholic parochial schools to Protestant academies to Islamic madrasas.

Church-run schools often combine standard curriculum with religious education, chapel services, or moral instruction rooted in the sponsoring denomination's teachings: She attended church-run schools through eighth grade.
