TONIGHT: New Hampshire Rallies for School Choice at Movie Screening, Special Forum
WINDHAM, N.H., Jan. 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Citizens from across New Hampshire will gather for an evening screening of the award-winning documentary, The Cartel tonight, January 26, 2011, to commemorate National School Choice Week. Participants will also discuss ways to improve the quality of education in New Hampshire and across the country.
Corey R. Lewandowski, State Director, Americans for Prosperity - New Hampshire is confirmed as a speaker at the event. Sponsored by the Americans for Prosperity Foundation, this free event will take place at 6:30 pm at the Church of Christ at 336 Salmon Falls Road in Rochester.
The Cartel—which portrays a public education system that is beholden to special interests, ignores the needs of parents, and misallocates hundreds of millions of dollars intended to help children—has served as a rallying cry for advocates who want to give parents immediate educational options for their children. The trailer and reviews are available at: TheCartelMovie.com
National School Choice Week, January 23-29, 2011, will shine an unprecedented spotlight on the need to dramatically improve educational outcomes for children and will highlight the benefits of school choice programs. Tens of thousands of people are expected to participate in events across the country during the week, which is being organized by more than 150 national and state groups.
"This event in New Hampshire will continue an important debate on the need to provide parents with access to the best schools for their children," said Kyle Olson, executive director of National School Choice Week. "At the end of the week, we hope that more parents will begin to demand enhanced educational options for their children and that lawmakers in New Hampshire and across the nation will take notice."
