Independence Institute, Liberty on the Rocks Celebrate School Choice Week with Kids Aren’t Cars Movie
On Thursday, January 26, Liberty on the Rocks and the Independence Institute celebrated National School Choice Week by co-hosting a special event at the Independence Institute’s new Freedom Embassy in Denver. Attendees watched selected portions of the 2011 movie Kids Aren’t Cars.
Afterward, the Education Policy Center’s Pam Benigno and Ben DeGrow shared some insights and answered questions about Colorado education reform topics, including the Douglas County Choice Scholarship program, a new parents’ guide to online learning programs, and of course, the one-of-a-kind, parent-friendly School Choice for Kids website. In addition, the trademark yellow School Choice Week scarves were handed out to the evening’s guests.
School Choice Week at the Independence Institute included celebrating more than four years of the parent-friendly School Choice for Kids website, with (from L to R) Raaki Garcia-Ulam, Hispanic outreach coordinator; Ben DeGrow, senior policy analyst; Pam Benigno, Education Policy Center director; and Joe Weaver, the original site programmer
