Many public schools serve more as warehouses for keeping kids off the street than places of education. That’s why we need school choice. 

School choice is more important than ever. Studies show that both violence and drug use are on the rise in our public schools. 

The research is clear: School choice improves students’ test scores and graduation rates. The more choice, the more improvement. 

How do we fight the problem of students’ “chronic disengagement”? Smaller classes, more personal education—in other words, school choice. 

When education is a choice, both the school and the students have a reason to buy in. Public school is compulsory, encouraging apathy.

Studies show that private and charter schools are significantly more effective than public schools at dealing with school discipline.

Many public schools must focus so much on policing violence and drugs that they cannot focus on the real priority: educating students.

School choice allows parents who live in undervalued neighborhoods to pick the school that works best for their children.
