What is school choice and why does SQE consider it essential to learning?
School choice gives all parents the opportunity to choose the school – public or private – that is best for their children. School choice is advantageous because it offers the most equitable and efficient way to effect school improvement. Teachers benefit from school choice as well, because it makes it possible for them to find positions that capitalize on their particular strengths and values. School choice is a powerful idea, a growing social movement, and a documented way to improve school performance. The public school monopoly badly needs more competition and accountability, and at the same time parents are demanding better performance from their schools. The answer is school choice.
