School Choice Empowering Parents, Transforming Futures America First Policy Institute #schoolchoice

Every child deserves access to a quality education—regardless of income or zip code.

Millions of children in failing schools have limited options due to income and bureaucratic barriers.

National Crisis: Only 35% of 4th graders nationwide are proficient in reading; 43% in math. In some districts, zero students meet math standards.
COVID’s Impact: School closures widened learning gaps, especially in low-income and minority communities.

What Is School Choice?: Options include public charter schools, private schools, faith-based institutions, and homeschooling—giving parents the power to choose.

Proven Results:
Florida’s programs increased graduation rates by 21%.

Washington, D.C.’s scholarships boosted graduation rates by 21%.

Parental Empowerment: 84% of military families consider school choice crucial. Satisfaction among parents in choice programs is significantly higher.

Addressing Critics:

Funding Misconception: Funds follow the student, not the system.
Accountability Myth: Private and charter schools thrive on results, outperforming many public schools.
