Description
Mississippi is at a pivotal moment in the national conversation on education reform. As families across our state seek greater opportunity, flexibility, and accountability in education, school choice has emerged as one of the most important policy tools for expanding access to high-quality learning—regardless of zip code or income level. Education Freedom with Corey DeAngelis will explore how education freedom empowers parents, strengthens communities, and puts students—not systems—first.
Drawing on national data, policy research, and real-world examples, Corey DeAngelis will examine how school choice works, what it looks like in practice, and how Mississippi can build on recent momentum to ensure every child has access to an education that meets their needs. From public charter schools and education savings accounts to innovative reforms tailored for rural and underserved communities, this discussion will focus on practical pathways to expand opportunity while respecting Mississippi’s unique educational landscape. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of how education freedom can help Mississippi families thrive—and why the future of our state depends on getting education right.
