The number of N.C. students educated in charter, private, and homeschools will soon top 300,000, according to estimates from the president of a leading school choice advocacy group.
Darrell Allison of Parents for Educational Freedom in North Carolina believes that enrollment number offers just one sign of growing support for school choice throughout the state.
