On homeschooling, Perry said on the Glenn Beck Radio Program in March 2013: "There's something special about a parent who is willing to give up a lot of time to homeschool their children. It's just, to me, one of the greatest displays of love in our country."
On school choice, Perry said in the Texas State of the State address in January 2013, "Not every child learns for the same purpose, not every child thrives in the same settings and schools. Limiting a child to just one opportunity does nothing more than limit that child's future. It's time to introduce scholarship programs that give students a choice, especially those who are locked into low-performing schools."
