School Choice in California

There are a variety of school choice options available for many of the 9.2 million children living in California. Families in California can choose from traditional public schools, public charter schools, public magnet schools, private schools, online academies, and homeschooling.

In 2026, we are partnering with 1,973 schools and organizations in California to raise awareness of K-12 education options. See our free Parent Pocket Guide for quick tips and clear steps to help you navigate the process.
