Inspiration for Joining the Educational Choice Movement

My three children attended private school from K through 8 and public school for high school. All of them had different styles of learning and benefited from the diverse education that both environments provided them. I believe strongly in parents’ ability to choose the best conditions for their children’s academic needs.
