School Choice Means Not Asking Politicians For Permission To Educate Your Child
by Lennie Jarratt February 1, 2016Parents, students, educators, and pro-liberty activists across the nation will be celebrating National School Choice Week, which began on Sunday and will wrap up on January 30. It’s a time to celebrate the education choices some students now enjoy and to open up similar opportunities for all students. All children deserve access to a quality education.

It is up to all taxpayers to demand school choice and give parents the power to guide their children’s education.
