General

Jobs and the economy.  We've heard those two words repeatedly over the past year, and most pundits believe the issues were critical for any political candidate in 2010.  But even though jobs and the economy were a focal point of the November general election, concerns about education were brimming quietly to the surface.

Zion Christian Academy, located in Roxboro, NC, was founded in 2002 by Zion Christian Center Pastors Danny and Teresa Johnson. Since its founding, the Academy has remained committed to providing the highest level of quality education serving kindergarten through the 12^th grade.

Here at Parents for Educational Freedom in North Carolina (PEFNC), our mission is to inform parents and citizens of the benefits of expanded educational options, and we seek to empower parents to exercise the freedom to meet their children’s needs. In short, PEFNC seeks to find real solutions to how we can effectively better our educational system for all children in North Carolina.

It’s true that parents have few educational options for their children in North Carolina. In an ideal world, parents here would have a free hand at choosing the location and model of their children’s education. Although not ideal by any means, there are glimmers of hope for families across the state.

Nationwide, parents are waging the fight for more educational options for their children.
