McKay Scholarship. Florida's school choice programs allow parents to choose the best educational settingâpublic or privateâfor their child. The McKay Scholarship Program for Students with Disabilities provided over 31,000 Florida students with special needs the opportunity to attend a participating private school during the 2016-17 school year. The McKay Scholarship Program also offers parents public school choice. A parent of an eligible special needs student may choose to transfer the student to another public school. The school-choice issue is not about public versus private; it's about choice. It's about knowing what works well for my family and being able to make that choice for them. â Parent of a McKay Scholarship Student
