At the end of this month, the grassroots movement known as National School Choice Week will once again take shape in schools, districts, and cities across the country. From January 26th to February 1st, 2014, school choice advocates across the nation will gather to demonstrate their belief that parents should be empowered to choose the best educational environments for their children. KANAAE is proud to be a partner in this unprecedented opportunity to shine a positive spotlight on the need for effective education options for all students and teachers.
KANAAE believes that parents should be empowered to choose the best educational environments for their children. Students learn differently, therefore a one-size-fits-all learning environment is no longer conducive to optimum learning. As educators we also recognize the possibilities for advancement and positive growth in the profession through school choice. Here at KANAAE, we support and represent educators from all education settings. During National School Choice Week, KANAAE is able to celebrate their choices as well. Teachers need choices too!
National School Choice Week was created to provide a concentrated focus on the mission – a time for the media and the public to hear a resounding message and a time to bring new voices into the chorus. This grassroots movement is a nonpartisan, nonpolitical public awareness effort, welcoming Americans from a variety of backgrounds to get involved.
Last year over 3,600 events were organized across all 50 states, over 3,000 schools celebrated by holding special events, 29 governors and dozens of mayors issued proclamations, and over 2,000 news stories highlighted the Week. Nation School Choice Week looks forward to even more support this year as KANAAE will be hosting several events across the state.
