	Karen Handel on Education

Make approving Charter Schools easier and less cumbersome

Georgia has made progress in some important areas of education, including graduation rates, SAT scores, and making the creation and approval of Charter Schools easier for parents. However, Karen thinks there is still much more work that has to be done.

Karen wants to expand and grow the number of Charter Schools in Georgia so that parents and students have choices for their education. Thanks to recent changes in the law, the process for approving Charter Schools is now easier and less cumbersome. We must take advantage of this and grow the number of these schools in Georgia.

CC:Vouchers for private schools.

Handel supports the CC survey question on education vouchers

The Christian Coalition Voter Guide inferred whether candidates agree or disagree with the statement, 'Education Vouchers that Allow Parents to Choose a Public or Private School for their Children' Christian Coalition's self-description: "Christian Voter Guide is a clearing-house for traditional, pro-family voter guides. We do not create voter guides, nor do we interview or endorse candidates."
