If a school is troubled, or unsafe, or not a good fit for a child--perhaps they have a special need that is going unmet--we should support a parent's right to enroll their child in a high-quality alternative.
Supporting parents' rights to choose better educational options for their children.

My focus is and always will be on students and on helping all students get a great education through an equal opportunity.
By implementing year-round Pell, we do give non-traditional students... the flexibility to set their own pace for their education.
We have got to continue to raise the specter of these opportunities and give them equal credence to the unspoken or often very verbally articulated pressure to go to a 4-year college.
I think that there is almost unanimity around this notion that more students need to have the opportunity to both earn and learn.
