All told, more than 677,000 children in grades K–12 were enrolled in classical education programs last year, a 2024 market analysis report by Arcadia Education states.
That includes students in 1,024 Christian Evangelical schools, 308 Catholic schools, and 219 public charter schools.
Additionally, about 261,000 students were home schooled using classical curricula.
Between 2017 and 2023, homeschooling under classical education instruction increased by 51 percent, followed by 7 percent in private religious schools and 4 percent in public schools, according to the report.
Arcadia forecasts an increase to 1.4 million students and 2,575 schools by 2035, including 119 new charter schools and 200 existing public schools that will adopt the classical curriculum

Opposition From Public School Teachers
Teachers unions at the national and local levels have opposed school choice measures, especially taxpayer-funded voucher programs that fund private school tuition, because they could decrease enrollment-based funding.
