                Proclamation 9571 of January 25, 2017

                
National School Choice Week, 2017

                By the President of the United States of America

                A Proclamation

                The foundation of a good life begins with a great 
                education. Today, too many of our children are stuck in 
                schools that do not provide this opportunity.

                Because the education of our young people is so 
                important, the parents of every student in America 
                should have a right to a meaningful choice about where 
                their child goes to school.

                By expanding school choice and providing more 
                educational opportunities for every American family, we 
                can help make sure that every child has an equal shot 
                at achieving the American Dream. More choices for our 
                students will make our schools better for everybody.

                Our country is home to many great schools and many 
                extraordinary teachers--whether they serve in 
                traditional public schools, public charter schools, 
                magnet schools, private or religious schools, or in 
                homeschooling environments.

                With a renewed commitment to expanding school choice 
                for our children, we can truly make a great education 
                possible for every child in America.

                I commend our Nation's students, parents, teachers, and 
                school leaders for their commitment to quality, 
                effective education, and I call on States and 
                communities to support effective education and school 
                choice for every child in America.

                As our country celebrates National School Choice Week, 
                I encourage parents to evaluate the educational 
                opportunities available for their children. I also 
                encourage State lawmakers and Federal lawmakers to 
                expand school choice for millions of additional 
                students.

                NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the 
                United States of America, by virtue of the authority 
                vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the 
                United States, do hereby proclaim January 22 through 
                January 28, 2017, as National School Choice Week.

                IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this 
                twenty-fifth day of January, in the year of our Lord 
                two thousand seventeen, and of the Independence of the 
                United States of America the two hundred and forty-
                first.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)
