National-School-Choice-Week-2026

Dear Families,

January 25-31 is National School Choice Week, a time to celebrate the fact that families get to choose the learning experience that best serves their children.

What is school choice?

“School choice is the process of allowing every family to choose the K-12 educational options that best fit their children. Every child is unique, and all children learn differently. Some children might succeed at the neighborhood public school, while others might find a better fit in a public charter, public magnet, online, private, home, or nontraditional environment.

“That’s why educational choice is so important!

“Every child deserves an effective, challenging, and motivating education. And, because each student has their own unique set of talents, interests, and challenges, having a variety of options in education is crucial. In short, school choice ensures that each student can find a learning environment that allows them to be inspired, successful, and happy.”

National School Choice Week

Thank you for choosing iLEAD Lancaster to be such an important part of your life! Happy National School Choice Week!
