Quality Choices

Nationally and in Ohio, we strive to develop policies and practices leading to a lively, accessible marketplace of high-quality education options for every young American (including charter schools, magnet schools, voucher programs, and online courses), as well as families empowered and informed so that they can successfully engage with that marketplace.

Resources:

  • America's Best (and Worst) Cities for School Choice
  • Is Detente Possible? District-charter school relations in four cities
  • Redefining the School District in America
  • ESSA and parental choice

Our many choice-related blog posts are listed below.
