The price for public schools is on a faster rate than Private schools.

Summary:

This article is about how the price of public schools, is growing faster that the price at private schools.  Public schools are run by the government and Private schools are run by themselves.  This is a trend around every region of the country, but is  increasing the most in the western part.  Over the past decade the western part of the country has an average increase of public schools at 86%.  It is now am average 0f 20,000 average tuition for public schools in the west, which is now over 4,000 dollars more than it was 5 years ago.   The raise in price has occurred because of the migration of people moving to the west.  Private schools are also on the rise, but the rate is far less rapid as the public schools.

Analysis:

After looking at this article I am not surprised to see that public school are on a more rapid rise that private school.  over the past couple of years I knew that there was a major migration to the western part of the country, but had no idea that it was this rapid.  The migration has an affect on the educational cost, as well as the nation as a whole.  This has a major effect also for college students around the nation.  Any student that wants to go to a public university has to know that they will be paying more and more each year.  Private Universities tuition isn't at as high of a rate as public schools, but with how much money it cost to go to a private university, there might not be that much of a difference in price in the future.
