When parents have the power to choose learning environments that best meet their children’s needs, students are more likely to learn, thrive, succeed, and be happy.
We believe that school choice is about personal decisions made by families, not politics. That is why we raise equal awareness of the education options parents have or want for their children, including traditional public, public charter, public magnet, private, online, home, and nontraditional learning environments.
schools participated in our National School Choice Week (NSCW) program in January 2024.
parents, in 2023, accessed our English- and Spanish language state guides to school choice.
Created in 2011, National School Choice Week is now America’s largest annual series of education-related events and activities, generating thousands of positive news stories that reach tens of millions of people.
Through Navigate School Choice and Conoce tus Opciones Escolares, we provide parents with English- and Spanish-language resources to help them find learning environments that best meet their children’s needs.
