This week we celebrate school choice across the country. We would like to draw attention to the incredible benefits of school choice policies for Vermont communities, families, and individual students.
During the dreary days of the Covid pandemic, parents were awakened to what their children are being taught in public schools. They saw their young children being exposed to damaging ideologies like gender theory, critical race theory and sexually explicit materials. Parents are the catalyst for change. If we want to send our children to schools that we can trust to educate our children and reinforce our values, we must keep fighting for educational freedom especially in Vermont.
We offer the testimony of a student at Sharon Academy in Sharon, VT as she describes the opportunities available to her thanks to Vermont’s remarkable town tuitioning policies.
