Expand Education Freedom in Missouri

Tell your lawmaker to expand Open Enrollment, expand Charter Schools, and establish true Education Savings Accounts

American schools were designed for a world that no longer exists - a standardized, top-down education model that prepared students for a factory economy. Today, this model is failing to prepare kids for the world they'll face after high school.

Over the last several years, public school enrollment has been declining. This trend accelerated during the pandemic. We have all read the stories and now see the data confirming what we already knew would be the impact of the lockdowns – children fell behind. Parents pulled their children from public schools and placed them in private or charter schools. Homeschooling doubled, with more than 11% of U.S. households now educating their children at home.

Freedom in K-12 education means choice in public, private, charter, homeschool, hybrid schools – any form of education that meets each individual student’s needs. A child’s educational opportunities should not be determined by their zip code or their socioeconomic status.

Even though Missouri appears to be an overwhelmingly ‘red’ state, true education freedom is an uphill battle. Our legislators are under constant pressure from public school bureaucrats and teacher unions to maintain the status quo, and our kids are suffering for it. They need to hear from their constituents.

We need ALL options on the table. Right now, there is legislation filed for expanding open enrollment in public schools, expanding charter schools, and allowing funding to follow the child to a school that meets their unique needs.

Education freedom is catching fire in legislatures all across the country – Missouri kids should not be left behind. If you want a better future for our children, please click the link below to contact your legislator.

Thank you for doing your part to make Missouri a state where all children have the opportunity to thrive.

Dear Officials:

As a concerned citizen of Missouri, I am asking you to please support the future of our state by expanding education opportunities for all children.

For most Missouri families, K-12 education choices are currently limited to their zip code unless they can afford to pay for other options. Every child has unique learning needs, and all children deserve the best education they can get regardless of their location or socioeconomic status. Education freedom will help the most vulnerable students in Missouri.

Please consider supporting legislation that will expand Open Enrollment, expand Charter Schools, and establish true Education Savings Accounts.

Our children are the future of liberty in Missouri and America. We need to prioritize our kids – and that means funding the best education for them and not the institutions that are failing them. Free market innovation and competition in education is the solution.

Thank you for putting students and families first!

Sincerely,

Yes, I want to Volunteer
