That’s how many students attended Florida’s Catholic schools last year using school choice scholarships, Friend – and that’s 3X as many as a decade ago. You know why there’s such a sharp uptick of Catholic education in the Sunshine State?[It’s because of school choice opportunities.]( Florida puts parents in the driver’s seat and allows them to make the decision that’s BEST for their children. [Benefits of Florida’s School Choice Program:]( ☀️ Parents are in control of their children’s education. ☀️ Scholarship programs provide families with direct funding. ☀️ Parents choose where they spend their scholarship dollars. Friend, over the last decade and especially in the early days of the pandemic, states without school choice – like New York and New Jersey – saw a dramatic loss in enrollment in Catholic schools. Parents could no longer afford to send their children to Catholic schools, resulting in a 30% drop in attendance, and some Catholic institutions closed their doors for good. Catholic schools in Florida, on the other hand, didn’t just survive. They THRIVED – all because parents were empowered. Friend, the school choice movement is now more important than ever as Catholic education comes under fire.
