School Choice Week in SC

This week is School Choice Week in South Carolina and across the country. More than 60 events are planned across the Palmetto State, in addition to 5,500 events nationwide. Lending support to the effort is Governor Nikki Haley, who recently proclaimed Jan. 26 – Feb. 1 as “South Carolina School Choice Week.” The Week, which is the nation’s largest-ever celebration of educational opportunity, gives students, parents, and teachers in South Carolina a chance to raise awareness of the different types of educational options available to families in advance of the 2014-2015 school year. Events across the state will include rallies, school fairs, roundtable discussions, open houses, and parent information sessions. National School Choice Week is an independent public awareness campaign that shines a spotlight on effective education options for all children. For more information, visit www.schoolchoiceweek.com.
