School choice is important because it allows families to find the best educational fit for their child, and it can benefit students, parents, and the public education system as a whole: 

• Student benefits

  School choice can help students find a school that better matches their needs, learning style, or values. For example, a student might learn best in a public charter school, private school, online school, or even at home. 

• Parental benefits

  School choice gives parents the flexibility to make decisions based on their child's needs, which can lead to better educational outcomes and increased parental satisfaction.
