The GCO Releases New Video: Hope for Georgia’s Kids

Atlanta, GA – Georgia legislators are currently considering HB 301 which would enable families to customize their children’s education to meet specific learning needs with an Education Scholarship Account (ESA). Experience and common sense tell us that no single system can meet the unique learning requirements of every child. ESA’s provide flexibility to find what works. 

The video by Georgia Center for Opportunity displays the power of school choice options and a quality education. Children in Georgia’s most crime-ridden zip code are thriving and achieving their dreams because they had the opportunity to utilize school choice programs.

The purpose of the video is to show real-life examples of how the Georgia Tax Credit Scholarship is making a positive impact and changing the life-trajectory of multiple students, who other wise would have no hope of completing their education. 

“Each child is wonderfully unique. That’s why families should have a variety of options when choosing the best way to educate their children,” stated Randy Hicks, President and CEO of Georgia Center for Opportunity. “Our work isn’t done until all of Georgia’s children can access an education that allow them to develop their unique gifts and achieve their potential.”

Georgia Center for Opportunity (GCO) is independent, non-partisan, and solutions-focused. Our team is dedicated to creating opportunities for a quality education, fulfilling work, and a healthy family life for all Georgians.
