Supporting public education or school choice is not an either/or situation — both public and nonpublic schools can thrive if we give parents the opportunity to make choices about the resources their child needs.
Our organization — EdChoice Kentucky — agrees with the majority of Kentucky voters that parents should have the power to choose what education opportunities meet their student’s needs. COVID-19 has only increased the need for financial support to cover things like tutoring, moving to a public or non-public school with safe, in-person instruction for a child struggling with NTI, online learning programs and more.
