Topic

Webinar: Does School Choice Help Rural Areas?

Description

Critics of school choice in rural areas often argue two contradictory things: that education choice won’t help rural students because there are too few options, and that public schools will be destroyed because so many students will leave. Yet, as Jason Bedrick of the Heritage Foundation demonstrates in his recent report, Rustic Renaissance: Education Choice in Rural America, the evidence shows that school choice actually spurs traditional public schools to improve. Join Alaska Policy Forum and Jason Bedrick in celebrating National School Choice Week on January 24, at 12 p.m. AK/4 p.m. ET.
