In South Carolina, we no longer segregate children in public libraries, parks, or swimming pools based of the color of their skin or their family’s income. But what about public schools?

Most low- and moderate-income parents don’t have any public options besides their zip-code assigned school. South Carolina’s new public education funding formula (2022) is more student-centered than ever. These financial reforms make freedom of choice within a district or even across district lines (also known as “open enrollment”) possible.
