In this episode of American Potential, host Jeff Crank is joined by Kirby West, an attorney from the Institute for Justice, and Andrea Moceri, a parent using Alaska's correspondence program, to discuss the legal battles surrounding educational choice in Alaska. The correspondence program, designed to meet the unique needs of Alaskan families—especially those in remote areas—has been a lifeline for many.
However, the program is facing legal challenges, with opponents claiming it violates the state’s constitution by directing public funds to private and religious schools. Kirby West breaks down the lawsuit, its implications, and the fight to preserve educational freedom in Alaska.
Meanwhile, Andrea shares her personal story of how this program has benefitted her son, allowing him to receive the education that best suits his needs.
Tune in to hear their insights on the importance of educational choice, the role of parents in deciding what's best for their children, and the ongoing battle to protect these vital programs.
