Walking In a School Choice Wonderland

Children learn, are you listening?
In their schools, nothing’s missing
A beautiful sight, their futures look bright
Walking in a school choice wonderland

Gone away, is the worry
Towards more choice, parents hurry
To get their child a seat, they vote with their feet
Walking in a school choice wonderland

In the District parents can choose a charter
Perhaps another opportunity
Anything but the best fit is a nonstarter
Education is too precious a commodity

State lawmakers, are you listening?
A generation, is what we’re risking
Innovations abound, learning gains will astound
Walking in a school choice wonderland

The Center for Education Reform (CER) wishes all Newswire readers a joyous holiday season, and a Happy 2015!
