Every January, families, educators, and communities nationwide celebrate National School Choice Week (NSCW)—a movement dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of empowering families with the freedom to choose the best educational options for their children.
National School Choice Week highlights the diversity of educational opportunities available to families today, including public charter schools, magnet schools, private schools, online academies, and homeschooling. This variety ensures every child can access an education tailored to their unique needs, interests, and learning styles.
At OCCS, we’re proud to support the mission of school choice and the families who benefit from it. We believe that when parents are empowered to choose, it drives innovation, equity, and excellence in education.
This week is also a chance to celebrate the educators and staff who work tirelessly to create high-quality learning environments in schools of choice. Their commitment ensures that students can thrive academically and socially, no matter where they learn.
