Hundreds of students, parents, teachers, and community leaders will kick off School Choice Week at the Idaho Statehouse on Monday. Leaders in the school choice community plan to come together to forecast goals for next year and celebrate the opportunities already available to Idaho students.
The event is aligned with National School Choice Week Jan. 22-28, which will feature more than 20,000 events across the country.
“We look forward to turning the state’s attention to the importance of an excellent education. There are so many fantastic schools, teachers, and leaders in Idaho working tirelessly on behalf of Idahoan students, and we use this Week to thank them and highlight their hard work,” said Terry Ryan of Bluum
