I’m so at lost with people who believe these vouchers are even at minimum okay. These vouchers hurt our kids so much. Private schools will at the start of the year accept everyone and anyone, however after the state mandated school attendance is done (usually 3rd or 4th week of school) private schools kick out the students they don’t want. Why? Because after the attendance is the done the budget is done (pupil to money ratio budget) and so private schools get to keep all those funds even after they kicked the students out, and where do those students go…public schools! Do those schools get more money for each student that is now added???? Nope! So this creates “over sized classrooms” teacher to student ratio disproportions, cutting programs etc. How can anyone agree with this system that distributes public tax dollars to private institutions who are not mandated to adhere to the basic “fair education for ALL students”????

Imagine if there is actual police choice. The GOP would lose their minds.

Here's one: They don't work. Check out the DC study final results by googling "Evaluation of the DC Opportunity Scholarship Program Final Report." The first bullet point in the executive summary says "There is no conclusive evidence that the OSP affected student achievement." Yes, the high school graduation rates improved by 13%, but all that really shows is that the private school options are good at retention and promotion -- the students ended up no better off academically. What's the value of that diploma?

(Greg Forster): "A WIN-WIN SOLUTION The Empirical Evidence on School Choice" Executive Summary: "The evidence points clearly in one direction. Opponents frequently claim school choice does not benefit participants, hurts public schools, costs taxpayers, facilitates segregation, and even undermines democracy. However, the empirical evidence shows that choice improves academic outcomes for participants and public schools, saves taxpayer money, moves students into more integrated classrooms, and strengthens the shared civic values and practices essential to American democracy. A few outlier cases that do not fit this pattern may get a disproportionate amount of attention, but the research consensus in favor of school choice as a general policy is clear and consistent."
