When conversing with each other for the first time, many American college students ask "Did you attend private or public school?" It is an inquiry as customary as “where are you living on campus?” Thus, many students respond with just a few words, and their conversations proceed to different subjects. But if you ask a Chilean university student about the administration of their primary and secondary education, the response will not be brief, and you might even find yourself listening to a manifesto.

Public schools exist in name, but a Chilean public school does not receive funding through citizens’ taxes and receives very little in the form of federal funds. Therefore, students from kindergarten to 12th grade must pay tuition every year in order to attend school, no matter what school they attend.
