| Abstract | School choice is a means to achieving numerous important goals: It fosters upward economic mobility, instills civic values, engenders an appreciation for the arts and humanities, and imparts students with the knowledge and the skills necessary to pursue their life and career goals. Education choice, at its essence, serves as a vehicle through which the individual is able to attain his highest aspirations. How do schools of choice foster these ends? Many model what Ron Haskins and Isabel Sawhill of the Brookings Institution have called "the success sequence": graduate high school, get a job, get married, and then have children. As Dr. Brad Wilcox has found, 97 percent of Millennials who follow the success sequence do not end up in poverty once they reach young adulthood. School choice, by enabling families to choose schools that foster the success sequence, provides access to education options that prepare students for all that life may hold, equipping them to be successful in marriage and family formation. Enabling students to choose schools that are the right fit for them prepares them to inherit the blessings and the liberties of a free society. (As Provided). |
