School Choice

Now that Texas and South Carolina have passed school choice bills, parents will be able to choose the best school for their kids in 17 states.  
Why not all states? - John Stossel

  • The Post Office couldn't get it there overnight. Then FedEx showed it could be done. Quickly, UPS and DHL did it, too, and now even the Post Office does ... sometimes.

But in most of America, parents have little or no choice when it comes to which school their kids attend.

  • Too bad for your kids...
