A group of education advocates is planning a rally at the state Capitol Wednesday to highlight legislation aimed at expanding charter schools and other school choice options in Georgia.
Rapper and actor Chris “Ludacris” Bridges is the headlined speaker for the noon event at Liberty Plaza hosted by the advocacy group Georgia Center for Opportunity.
The rally is aimed at highlighting legislation (SB 91 and HB 234) to create more statewide, educational choice by creating a so-called Education Savings Account program.
The event coincides with National School Choice Week, which features a series of rallies and other education-related events promoting school choice across the county.
Ludacris has previously worked with his daughter Karma to launch the educational website KarmasWorld.com. The site features interactive songs and learning modules related to geography, math and other subjects.
