The School Choice Road Trip
The School Choice Road Trip was created to explore how school choice is transforming education across America—through the powerful stories of parents who found the right path for their children, and the educators who are making it possible. Our Events and Program Services Coordinator, Scott Leven, led the effort, traveling to five states—Ohio, Florida, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Arkansas—to showcase how a wide range of educational options are providing real solutions for families nationwide, including traditional public, public charter, magnet, private, online, home-based, and non-traditional schools. Part of a five-part series, these stories highlight the many dimensions of school choice and how families are navigating their options with confidence. Our first stop was Ohio, where we met the parents and educators of Explorers Academy, a STEM-focused public charter school.
Now, we’re hitting the road and hearing from the voices of parents, students, and educators of South Carolina’s Second Baptist Christian Preparatory School and Tennessee’s Lakeway Christian Academy, two private schools with a focus on fostering a close-knit community.
Missed the first stop in our journey? Don’t worry – you can still catch up below and hear how school choice is making a difference through the voices of parents, students, and educators at Explorers Academy. Their stories offer a powerful look into how school choice is shaping the lives of families in Ohio.
More Stories Coming Soon
This is just the beginning. Over the the coming weeks, we’ll release more stories from the road—each one highlighting a different part of the country. Stay tuned for the next chapters in our series, where we will continue to share stories that shine a light on how families are finding support and opportunity through education.
