Erie Day School Earns National Recognition for Student and Parent Engagement

National School Choice Week names Erie Day School an “All Star” for helping families better understand local learning options.


Erie Day School has been named an “All Star” participant in the annual celebration of National School Choice Week (January 25–31, 2026; schoolchoiceweek.com) by the event’s organizer, the 501(c)(3) nonprofit National School Choice Awareness Foundation.

More than 26,400 schools across the country participate in National School Choice Week each year, but fewer than five percent earn the “All Star” designation. Schools receiving this distinction go above and beyond to raise awareness of the full range of PreK–12 education options available to families, including public, charter, magnet, private, online, and home education.

All Star” schools are recognized for hosting welcoming, family-centered events that help parents navigate educational choices while celebrating students, teachers, and local school communities.
