A thoughtful column on the Mississippi Today website laid out a couple of education ideas that have nothing to do with the pending school choice proposal that would allow families, with state assistance, to enroll their children in whatever school they wish.
Bradley Roberson, superintendent of the Oxford School District, wrote that a state lawmaker challenged him: “If not school choice, then what?” Roberson has a couple of good ideas worth considering. Anything like them would transform education in Mississippi.
