OUR KIDS tracks private schools' famous alumni. Alumni fame or notability is primarily based on whether they have a page on Wikipedia; we view this as a credible indicator of someone who has made a significant impact on society and culture. Below, we rank schools based on this aspect. This list is presented to spark your curiosity, and numerous other factors should go into your school choice process.
Across our platform, we caution parents against focusing on school rankings. Ranking schools on any basis is a limited way of thinking about your school choice, even though lists can be a useful tool in some contexts. It's far more important to understand your child, and when you research, read our advice guide, read reviews, and explore many other resources from OUR KIDS, including private school expos.
