"There is no one size fits all approach to education," says
Melanie Hildreth, director of development at the Institute for Justice, a
libertarian public interest law firm based in Virginia. "Parents are in the best
position to make choices for their own children."
In September, five
Nevada families partnered with the Institute for Justice to defend the
constitutionality of the state’s innovative Education Savings Account program.
The program, which goes into effect in 2016, would give families with children
in grades K-12 the choice to opt out of the public school system and receive a
flexible scholarship to use on a multitude of educational services—ranging from
private school tuition to books, tutoring, and other educational needs.
