Explore Your Family’s Future: Discover Educational Choices at the Las Vegas School Choice Fair!

The Las Vegas School Choice Fair was held last Saturday at IPEC Las Vegas. It is the largest event during School Choice Week, and it aimed to empower families with valuable information about their educational options.

More than 80 schools participated, showcasing various types like traditional public, charter, magnet, private, faith-based, online, home, and micro schooling. The CEO of the National School Choice Awareness Foundation described the fair as a fantastic opportunity for parents to explore these choices.

The event was organized by the Nevada School Choice Coalition, which is part of the American Federation for Children Growth Fund. It also offered resources in both English and Spanish, making it accessible to a wider audience.

This year’s fair coincided with National School Choice Week, which ran from January 26 to February 1. The week is celebrating its 15th anniversary with over 27,000 events across the country.

Senator Carrie Buck and Assemblywoman Danielle Gallant spoke at the fair, emphasizing the importance of providing school choice in Nevada. Senator Buck stated that every child should have access to a quality education and that the fair helps families understand their options.

Assemblywoman Gallant agreed, noting that events like this allow representatives to hear from the community about their education needs. She believes that school choice can significantly improve lives for many families.

With expectations of over 2,000 attendees, the fair highlighted its role as a key event for National School Choice Week in Nevada.
