Every child

deserves the opportunity

to thrive

When it comes to education, one size does not fit all. Children thrive when they attend a school that is a great fit for them academically and socially.

School Choice has become one of the biggest issues in Ohio and all across the United States.  After years of upheaval in education due to COVID and other issues our schools continue to face, it is clear that the one-size-fits-all approach does not work for Ohio students.  Ohio families should have the ability as well as the authority to choose what is the best path for their students’ education.

Education Options

When it comes to education, one size doesn’t fit all. Our children deserve a high-quality education that is tailored to their needs. The right education can completely change a child’s life. 

It’s a decision that belongs to you because no one knows your children better. You know their needs, their likes, and dislikes, their strengths, and weaknesses. It makes sense that you are the one who gets to decide what school they attend.

Have a question? We’re here to help. Call us at 614-223-1743 (parent info center) or
800-673-5876 (toll-free) or email us at info@scohio.org.
