I also had the opportunity to talk with Lt. Governor Nu\u00f1ez and Senator Bradley. Decisions made in Tallahassee have a great impact on local education.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q: Has the date been set for the School Choice Expo?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A: Believe it or not, it\u2019s not too soon to begin thinking about school choice options. The School Choice Expo will be held on Saturday, Jan. 11, 2020 at the Prime Osborn Convention Center. All neighborhood, magnet, and charter schools will be represented under one roof so parents can get full information to help make the right choice for their student.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Q: Do you have anything else to share about about District 7?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A: I have a couple of shout outs.
