Steve, Not sure what you are asking, but I would set up the tables thus:
tbl_Schools school_id ( primary key) school_name school_typeID tbl_SchoolTypes school_typeID (primary key) school_type then you join the tables using the school_typeID field....this structure will allow you to modify the labels (field: school_type) you use within tbl_SchoolTypes without have to change the values of school_typeID within tbl_Schools.
