Public and private education is available for all Virgin Islanders from pre-school through college. The government operates Head Start centers on all three islands and there are many private pre-schools. Students attend private non-sectarian, religious or public schools. Private and religious schools charge tuition. Government-run schools are free. Most families who relocate to the Virgin Islands send their children to private or religious-affiliated schools.
