“With over four million K-12 students enrolled in online learning options nationwide, it’s clear that the traditional school model isn’t a best fit for all children,” said Kara Kerwin, president of The Center for Education Reform. “Not only that, but there’s a clear demand for more and better learning options from North Carolina parents, with over 5,500 applications for approximately 2,400 scholarships in the North Carolina Opportunity Scholarship Program’s first year, and home schooling increasing by 27 percent compared to two years ago” continued Kerwin. “It’s time for North Carolina to put aside its bias against virtual charter schools and listen to families who want and deserve access to this learning opportunity for their children.”
