I believe in school choice because you can choose a public or a private school to go to instead of being pushed into going to a public school. I am glad we can choose without being pushed. I'm glad we have a choice.

I'd rather go to a private school because I feel safer than going to a public school. In public schools, you can be scared of being yelled at by a teacher, or even worse, being shot. You don't really have to be scared about that. This will also allow me to be a Christian in my school. It will help my mom pay for most of the cost.

The reason why I didn't want to go to public school is you can get more attention and one on one help. They understand feelings and not just numbers and another reason why is because you can't always get what you need when you need it.

I'm glad this program exists or I would be going to a public school for sure this semester. I thank God this program is still going in the year 2002
