A Slice with 'Dice

Embracing a Collaborative Approach in the Era of School Choice

Corey Alderdice Season 1 Episode 8

In this week's episode, we explore the implications of the Arkansas LEARNS Act and the shifting landscape of school choice in the state. With the introduction of Educational Freedom Accounts (EFAs) and the expansion of charter schools, competition among educational institutions is intensifying. However, educators should emphasize the importance of moving beyond competition and fostering a spirit of collaboration among schools. By working together, sharing resources, and prioritizing the needs of students and families, we can create a more equitable and effective educational system. Join ASMSA Executive Director Corey Alderdice as he discusses how a collaborative approach can lead to lasting success for all stakeholders in Arkansas's education sector.
