This week, Florida. Gov. Ron DeSantis announced a substantial $1.25 billion allocation for teacher salary increases over the next five years.
School choice advocates say this trend in teacher salary increases follows the implementation of school choice policy in a state that has been seen in several other states that have also implemented universal school choice policies.
One of those groups is the American Federation for Children (AFC), the nation’s leading school choice advocacy organization.
AFC was instrumental in working with Florida lawmakers to pass a school choice policy in the state. They say competition in education shows a correlation between school choice policy and improved salaries for educators.
