NATIONAL SCHOOL CHOICE WEEK
Body
Recommended Action:
Recommendation
Motion to recognize January 20-26, 2019 as Delray Beach School Choice Week, and call this observance to the attention of all of citizens in Delray Beach.
Body
Background:
National School Choice Week is entirely nonpolitical and nonpartisan, and does not advocate for or against any legislation. The goal is simply to raise awareness, among parents, of the public and nonpublic K-12 education options available to their children. Last year, more than 720 Mayors and county leaders, along with 32 Governors, the unanimous United States Senate, and the President issued proclamations recognizing National School Choice Week.
