| Abstrakt: | There are many different schooling options, and they are all welcome under the broad umbrella of choice. But not all educational choice programs are created equal. Public charter schools and public-to-public transfers, for example, have provided options within the traditional system, but those programs leave many schooling types off-limits for families. EdChoice's goal as the nation's oldest school choice organization is to highlight and promote the programs that create the most pathways for students to lead successful lives. That's why EdChoice focuses efforts on education savings accounts (ESAs), tax-credit ESAs, vouchers, and tax-credit scholarships programs. This year, EdChoice is adding a fifth core program type, refundable tax credits, to more specifically reflect the nuances of different program offerings. The authors also highlight individual tax credits and deductions and 529 savings accounts. These programs are more limited and tend to provide minimal financial assistance to families. EdChoice believes that access should be universal and that all families should be able to find what works for their students--regardless of where they live or how much money they make. This guide introduces the fundamentals of school choice and answers some basic questions about why and how these programs work. |
