School choice is about a fundamental right for parents to have access to an educational environment that serves their children best. I believe taxpayer dollars should fund all educational options. Providence parents, and parents across Rhode Island, should have a wide range of high-quality schools to choose from, like traditional public schools, charter schools, private and religious schools, or virtual learning online. Let the money follow the child. We must make Providence Public Schools competitive and redirect education away from the forces that have kept our schools from reaching their full potential. We must teach students to master the basics and to think critically and independently.
