We are a coalition of the willing who are committed to changing how education is funded in California.

We hold to the principle that state funding for K-12 education should follow the student and not the school district.
To that end and consistent with recent Supreme Court rulings, parents should be able to direct their students equal share of the states education budget to the public, private or parochial accredited school of their choice.
Given that their allocation may be more than tuition costs, and that home school parents are not accredited, any funds left over will accumulate and may at age 18 be used for college or vocational training. Under the current budget allocation, the amount would be approximately $16,000 per student/per year.
We intend to achieve these goals through the initiative process with a change to the California State Constitution.
The first step is to send the initiative to the California Secretary of State for title and summary. Once approved and returned we will have 180 days to collect 1.5 million signatures of registered voters to get the bill on the ballot for November 2024.
At this time, we are engaged in recruiting volunteers throughout the state to help us achieve these simple goals. This includes volunteers who are willing to assume leadership roles (very important!), as well as those who will participate as part of a team to collect signatures wherever people gather. We are a functioning Committee - "Californians for School Choice", and donations are not tax deductible.

7. This program only applies to K-12 students who opt-in and does not make any changes to Public Education.
