Gov. Bill Lee signed the Education Freedom Act this past week, legislation that establishes Tennessee’s first-ever universal school choice program. The Governor was joined by members of the Tennessee General Assembly and stakeholders, including dozens of Tennessee families, students and educators, to celebrate the Education Freedom Act’s passage into law with his signature.

“This is a momentous day as we make universal school choice a reality for all Tennessee families, and I’m grateful to the parents and students who have advocated at the Capitol and across the state,” said Gov. Lee. “Tennesseans care deeply about their kids’ future, and I’m grateful that families will now have greater opportunity with the freedom to choose their child’s education. I thank the General Assembly for their partnership in advancing the cause of education in Tennessee.”
