Governor-elect Pat McCrory got a welcoming message from a group that wants more charters and public money to support private-school education.
“We look forward to working with the McCrory administration to create more quality parental school choice options for all families that will help prepare their children for a 21st century economy," says Darrell Allison, president of Parents for Educational Freedom in North Carolina.
The group worked for the law last year that eliminated the cap on charter schools, and this year pushed unsuccessfully for a law that would have corporations get dollar-for-dollar tax refunds for contributions to private school scholarships.
Candidate McCrory expressed support for more charters and for some type of taxpayer-supported private school scholarships.
