Mission
The mission of this office is to lead statewide efforts to close the achievement gaps affecting students whose educational opportunities are limited by low-performing schools, to increase awareness among parents and other community members about public school options in Florida and to ensure all students are well-served and No Student Is Left Behind.We want to improve Florida's K-12 education:
- by empowering parents, particularly in low-income families to choose the education they determine is best for their children;
- by providing information and resources for school choice issues; and
- by promoting excellence in education by encouraging competition of supplemental education service providers
