Strategic Investment Priorities
We focus on four key areas that directly impact family choice and educational freedom
Fund Families Directly
Support policies that empower families to direct their tax dollars to choose any school, including private schools, microschools, or homeschools, e.g. education tax credits, ESAs, vouchers, and tax credit scholarships.
Empower Public School Choice
Enable families to access any public school regardless of where they live. Support universal cross-district open enrollment and within-district options, and eliminate exclusionary school boundaries.
Build Custom Education Bundles
Enable families to mix and match educational experiences by supporting course choice, flexible enrollment, and universal extracurricular access across different educational settings.
Program Implementation & Reform
Turn policy wins into real-world access for families to meet their needs. Focus on rulemaking, procedure refinement, supporting agency staff, and creating user-friendly, scalable experiences.
