The Growing School Choice Ecosystem

As noted in Theme 5 of GSV Ventures’ Forecast for Learning & Earning in 2025-2026, private school enrollment has grown—both in the US and globally—over the past five years, driven by:

• Rising demand from families seeking better-fit, alternative models
• New sources of capital like ESAs and vouchers
• Technological advancements lowering operational costs and enabling other delivery methods, like hybrid or online models

With over 1 million US students participating in private school choice programs (ESAs, vouchers, tax-credit scholarships, etc.) as of 2024—and a fourth consecutive year of private school growth—families and K-12 leaders must grapple with this shift in experimental formats, accountability, and transparency.

In this webinar, GSV Ventures Partners Jennifer Lee and Claire Zau, along with Superintendent George Philhower and Stand Together’s Adam Peshek, will help education leaders, funders, and builders understand the growing school choice trend—and what that means for preparing ALL students for the future.
