School choice is an important right that must be preserved and must not be infringed upon by over-zealous advocates of big government and/or moral authoritarianism.  Parents have a right to educate their children as they see fit.  Government should not infringe upon the rights of parents to choose where their child goes to school, how their children are educated, whether or not they are exposed to problematic curricula like critical race theory (with its leftist/Marxist roots).  As taxpayers, parents that choose to homeschool their kids and parents that put their kids in private schools should be allocated their education tax dollars to use as they see fit for the benefit of their child.  As an example, In 2017, not a single student in 13 public high schools in Baltimore could do math at grade level (https://blackcommunitynews.com/larry-elder-yes-on-school-choice-but-it-requires-parental-involvement/). With results like this from Democrat-led, competition-quashing policies, no wonder that 35% of Baltimore public school teachers with school-age children sent those children to private schools.  In sharp contrast, note the success stories of Sahara Aden and the thousands of students like her, who benefitted from school choice policies: https://www.badgerinstitute.org/Commentary/School-choice-A-success-story.htm. With such contrasting results, school choice is clearly the best policy.
