My 11-year-old daughter is exactly the type of student Georgia leaders had in mind when they enacted the Special Needs Scholarship back in 2007. The scholarship allows qualifying students to apply the state portion of their education funding toward private school tuition if their local public school isn’t the right fit.
That describes my daughter’s situation perfectly, but a web of bureaucracy has kept her from participating in this state program. That needs to change.
Opinion: Legislation to make special needs scholarships more available needs support
