Inspiration for Joining the Educational Choice Movement

I have always had great respect and love for education. In college, I majored in elementary education and minored in early childhood education. I believe that every child is special and unique, and that they all learn in different ways. What better way to teach them than by giving all children the option and opportunity that works best for them to learn and achieve to the highest of their ability? It’s a beautiful thing to see.
