LITTLE ROCK, Ark. —

National School Choice Week for 2023 is taking place Jan. 22-28. Events are scheduled across Arkansas, including a rally Monday in Little Rock.

Gov. Sanders has made school choice a big part of her Arkansas L.E.A.R.N.S. plan. We have spoken with supporters on both sides of the argument surrounding school choice.

Laurie Lee, The Reform Alliance Chair, says alternative models of learning are beneficial to the state.

“Families will have access to their education dollars to be able to take their kids and put them in education models that work best for their children,” Lee said.

However, others say public school is where the priorities should be.

“If we’re talking about private schools and scholarships and tax vouchers in order to attend a private school, then we’re looking at taking public funds from public schools,” Carol Fleming, the Arkansas Education Association president, said.
