Parents of children with disabilities who want REAL school choice should instead go to www.specialedoptions.com
The Georgia Legislature has enacted the Georgia Special Needs Scholarship for youngsters to earn a scholarship to transfer to a private school if their parents are unhappy with the public school. The scholarship is for their entire academic career. It is only for children with special needs. Details and how to apply are on the web site. This is real competition and choice for parents who aren't happy with other public school options.
