Vice President Mike Pence and Education Secretary Betsy DeVos spoke in Madison, Wisconsin, on Jan. 28 as students and parents were celebrating this years National School Choice Week.<\/p>\n

The event at Wisconsins State Capitol was organized by Hispanics for School Choice<\/a>, a non-profit organization that aims to help families gain access to and information on education options outside the public school system\u2014a major focus of DeVos and her department.<\/p>\n

DeVos said the National School Choice Week is not only an opportunity for parents and students to celebrate the freedom to choose the education they consider best for them, but also a time to think about and continue to fight for those who dont have such freedom.<\/p>\n

\u201cEducation shouldnt be determined by luck, or by address, or by family income,\u201d said the Education Secretary. \u201cEducation shouldnt be an old-school one-size-fits-all experience. Every student is unique, and every student learns differently.\u201d<\/p>\n

DeVos added that her department is advancing an education freedom agenda, which centers around giving the right to choose back to parents, students, educators, and their communities. \u201cStudents in control of their pathway to a successful education, career, and life. Families in control of how, when, and where their students will learn best. Teachers in control of their classrooms and their careers. States and communities\u2014not Washington, D.C.\u2014in control of local decisions,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n

Mike Pence, who visited the swing state again two weeks after he accompanied President Donald Trump at a campaign event in Milwaukee delivered a brief speech following DeVos remark to reaffirm to the audience that the White House supports the cause.<\/p>\n

\u201cIm here to tell you, President Donald Trump stands for school choice for every American and every American family,\u201d said Pence. \u201cIn fact, as a candidate, President Trump promised the American people that he would be the nations biggest advocate for school choice.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pence and DeVos were joined by former Wisconsin Gov. Tommy Thompson, a Republican and renowned school choice pioneer whose administration launched in 1989 a modern school vouchers program<\/a> targeting students from low-income households in the Milwaukee School District, the very first of its kind in the United States. Wisconsins private school choice programs<\/a> currently enroll more than 40,000Read More \u2013 Source<\/a>
