Just a word of advice with going to a private school. As soon as you get to any company after school you will go through their orientation and the first thing they will tell you is "to forget what you learned in school'. The reason is that schools help you get prepared for a CDL, but dont really teach you anything else for working full time. The skills you get at a school will put you ahead of the permit holders at an orientation but you will have to learn how to operate the company's equipment, their way.
I'm not saying what you learn in school is useless, just different from the way a company will want you to operate their equipment, logs, backing, etc.
