Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice argued in favor of school choice, saying the U.S. has universal school choice that negatively impacts minority and low-income students.
Sarah Rumpf-Whitten is a breaking news writer for Fox News Digital and Fox Business.
"So are you for school choice or not? We already have a choice system in education," Rice said. "If you are of means, you will move to a district where the schools are good and the houses are expensive, like Palo Alto, California." She is a native of Massachusetts and is based in Orlando, Florida.
"If you’re really wealthy, you will send your kids to private school. So who’s stuck in failing neighborhood schools? Poor kids. A lot of them minority kids." Story tips and ideas can be sent to sarah.rumpf@fox.com and on X: @s_rumpfwhitten.
