Yes, but you would have to gain entry into the United States first. Also, remember that nothing is truly free. The hard work you will have to apply to learning another language, culture, and making a new life here is difficult, but worthwhile if you are commited. If you do come, you will be most successful if you:
A. Learn English as fast as possible by talking with everyone even if it is embarrassing and you get the words wrong sometimes. The better you speak, read, and write English, the more successful you will be in school and in getting a job.
B. Don't just find another group of Chinese people and stay with them. Make lots of American friends and spend time with them. This will improve your English and help you understand American culture faster.
C. Be brave! It is difficult, but you can do it.
D. Be a good American and get citizenship. Vote and be active in your community.

If you were an exchange student...you could indeed go to our schools. And yes education is free in public school.
I tried to email you back, but couldn't reply.
I think you should ask the question to the people here.
WHO HERE HAS BEEN AN EXCHANGE STUDENT?
WHO CAN I CONTACT TO BE ONE?
WAS THE EXPERIENCE YOU HAD ONE YOU WOULD ENJOY DOING AGAIN?
These people have experiences I don't have. I went to school with several exchange students. And I have friends from here who studied abroad. Good luck!

If you move here you can. Public education is for everyone. Free is a debatable word. Tax dollars pay for the schools to be open.

American public schools are paid for by the taxpayers of the cities they are in. Property taxes and bond measures, etc. If you wish to go to a private school, you must pay tuition. However, you may have to be imunized, and transfer your grade averages, credits, etc. to go to school.. That is something you may need to check on.

The school is free, but the plane ticket and everything else sure isn't.
