By Krista Carney
Georgia celebrated National School Choice Week with a great event! More than 2,000 parents, students and allies gathered near the state’s capitol with Gov. Nathan Deal and Grammy award winning artist Chris Bridges (aka Ludacris) and actress Keisha Knight Pulliam.
AFC’s Champions for Choice in Education initiative, which works with celebrities to share the power of school choice, brought the special celebrity guests to the rally put on by the Georgia Center for Opportunity.
Ludacris, rapper, actor and entrepreneur, has always been interested in every child being able to access a quality education, innovative learning techniques and having options available to all. He even helped his daughter, Karma, create an interactive learning website.
