Inspiration for Joining the Educational Choice Movement

Growing up on the South Texas border, I saw students in need of educational options that met them exactly where they were. Instead, I witnessed a system which time and time again was unable to serve all the unique needs of individual students. A single system cannot specialize or excel. Creating more options for parents and students is the solution.
