PSS 2009-10 (https://nces.ed.gov/surveys/pss/) is a cross-sectional survey that builds an accurate and complete universe of private schools to serve as a sampling frame for NCES surveys of private schools and generates biennial data on the total number of private schools, teachers, and students. The study was conducted using surveys of administrative personnel. A universe of private schools extant in October 2009 was built. The study�s response rate was 93.6 percent. Key statistics produced from PSS 2009-10 are religious orientation, level of school, length of school year, length of year and school day, total enrollment (K-12), race/ethnicity of students, number of high school graduates, number of teachers employed, program emphasis, and existence and type of kindergarten program.
