Betsy DeVos: Parents Need to Have Control Over School Choice

‘Parents, families need to be able to have that control and that power’

EXCERPT:

DEVOS: "Well, this is a very important case and one that's being watched closely by all of those who have been long advocating for parents to have that power and control over where their kids go to school, where they go to learn. This last year and a half has brought millions more to that table. This is an important issue and an important case that will be decided soon, but it’s already been decided by many families who could make that decision based on the resources they have to be able to afford it. What we've been long advocating for is that all families be able to make those decisions. And contrary to what I heard Justice Breyer say, the money doesn’t go to the schools. The money goes to the families and the families make those decisions. So this is the important piece of it, that parents, families need to be able to have that control and that power and to make those decisions that are the right fit for their children based on their own family's needs and values."
