Gov. Ivey introduces a CHOOSE Act family: the Moseleys

Governor Kay Ivey introduced the Moseley family, who utilized the state’s CHOOSE Act education savings account, calling their story exactly what the program supports.

The Moseley family

Governor Kay Ivey last Friday introduced the Moseleys, an Alabama family utilizing the CHOOSE Act, the governor’s education savings account, ESA, program. Laura Moseley has two children Christopher “Cayden” (10th grade) and Kynslie (7th grade) at Wilcox Academy.

“Laura Moseley’s story embodies exactly what the CHOOSE Act was created to support: parents making the best choices for their children,” said Gov. Ivey. “Families like the Moseleys, rooted in their communities and committed to giving their children the best chance to succeed, deserve options. I am proud to see the CHOOSE Act opening doors for families across Alabama, and particularly in my hometown of Camden.”

Born and raised in Camden, Laura has been a bank teller for 17 years and values her small-town community and faith. She hoped to continue providing a safe haven for her family like she experienced growing up.

To other Alabama parents, Laura advised regarding the CHOOSE Act, “The CHOOSE Act is the way to go—my family truly benefitted. This opportunity is a blessing and is here for a reason. I wanted my children to have a personable, hands-on education, and thanks to the CHOOSE Act, they now have an education that works best for them.”

The Moseley household is always busy with Cayden and Kynslie’s well-rounded interests. Cayden loves sports and never misses the chance to grab a ball and head outside. He enjoys football, basketball and track. Kynslie is fun, loving and enjoys reading a good book and perfecting math in the classroom.

Laura Moseley added, “Now, the sky is the limit. Governor Ivey opened doors with this opportunity and it shows that she really cares and wants the best for the people of Alabama. The CHOOSE Act is here to help real Alabama families—take a chance and apply.”

The CHOOSE Act can help families with instructional materials and supplies, covering items like curriculum, textbooks, workbooks, educational software, computers, school supplies and even fees charged by tutors or schools. With assistance from the CHOOSE Act, Laura has been able to secure a new computer and printer at home to improve Cayden and Kynslie’s after-school environment. Now, they can do homework, projects and assignments from the comfort of home.

The Moseley family is one of tens of thousands being supported by the CHOOSE Act. In recent months, the governor featured families from across the state, including the McDades and the Walkers from Montgomery, the Siemenses in Dothan and the Carbonells in Birmingham, and said she will continue highlighting real Alabama families positively impacted by this school choice program.
