Election Day is two weeks from tomorrow.

And while this is an off year for statewide races, every Kentuckian is being asked to consider two constitutional amendments.

Amendment One asks if non-citizens should be banned from voting in Kentucky, something that isn't currently happening.

And Amendment two would create a path for the General Assembly to direct public dollars to private schools.

Last week, I spoke with Jennie Clark, an Arizona mother who once lived in Louisville, who says school choice is working for her family.

Jennie Clark, thank you so much for your time.

We really appreciate it.

Thanks for having me.

Well, you've recently kind of resurfaced in Kentucky.

A piece an op ed that you wrote appeared in The Courier Journal.

The headline was School Choice Shines Bright in Arizona.

Kentucky should be next.

What's the main point of what you were communicating in that opinion piece?

Well, I have seen information about Arizona's program in the news in Kentucky from different policy organizations, and I felt compelled to correct the record when I saw a lot of these lies about how Arizona's education savings account or School choice program was actually working.

And that's why I wrote the op ed.

And I wanted Kentucky families to know that Arizona's budget is doing just fine and that kids and families in Arizona have more options because of essays.

Well, talk about your personal experience and connection to this issue, because it's not just respond to policy questions and rebutting what may have been put out in a position paper, but you have personal experience with how this is help your kids thrive and a better educational environment.

Talk to us about that.

Yes, ma'am, That's right.

So I have five children, three boys and two girls, and I was homeschooling my two oldest boys when they were six and eight.

And unfortunately, we discovered that they were struggling to read.

We got them evaluated at our local school district.

They had severe dyslexia and dyspraxia.

And unfortunately, there were no programs that were offered to me in one of the best school districts in my state.

I help my dyslexic children.

One in five kids have dyslexia.

And so we ended up on our state Education savings account program.

It completely transformed our lives.

We were able to afford the best therapies, the best programs, the best tutors.

And now all five of my kids are on an essay because, of course, our program now is universal.

It's no longer just for special needs students.

So I just want families to know that these programs are really life changing for students with disabilities.

And so you couldn't find those services to help your children in a traditional public school environment.

Yes, that's right.

So traditional public schools can write IEP or 504 plans.

And any parent who's been through those meetings knows that it's a very difficult, very emotional process, not just to get your kid identified, but to get them the services that you feel like they need.

And most parents, if you were to ask them today, feel like they're not getting the high quality services that they need, no matter what state you're in.

And that's because of all sorts of different reasons.

But with an essay, we were able to just quickly opt out of that and get our kids services immediately.

There was no wait, there's no delay.

We were able to leave that option and quickly get on to an education savings account.

Yes, I'm sorry.

That's where I wanted to pick up when you said essay, just to kind of clue our viewers and educate in savings account, can you describe or define more of what that is and how it works in Arizona?

So an education savings account is a scholarship that allows families to take a portion of the funds here in Arizona.

90% to be exact.

So there's a taxpayer savings, and we're allowed to use that funding for tutors, airplanes, home education or a private school of our choosing.

Those funds, we receive them every single year.

They roll over and they allow parents to be in control of where their child goes.

We're no longer limited in Arizona by our family income or by our zip code.

When it comes to giving our kids a great education.

And we have had easings in Arizona for approaching 12 years.

Our program just went universal for all families two years ago.

And not a single public school is closed in Arizona because of your faith.

In fact, it's been the opposite.

More kids have options and more teachers have options because we have new schools opening all the time here in our state.

Well, thank you, Jenny Clark, so much for your time.

We really appreciate it.

Thank you, Renee.
