Yeah, right! Let them take a few thousand dollar voucher and try to get into any one of those schools. First, they would not pass the entrance requirements.
You people are ridiculous sometimes!
The charter schools will skim off the cream of the kids to help improve their test scores but the rest of the kids will be carefully screened to keep out the problem kids, or those who might not improve the test scores of the charters, or those with expensive handicaps, and the public schools will have that much less cash to deal with all the rest.
No....wrong.......vouchers give the parents power to choose schools.....and schools will open to get those vouchers.....you are thinking that only public schools will exist....you don't take into account new schools opening in response to the freedom the parents will have to send their kids to other schools...right now, the public school system is a monopoly, unless you are rich, you have to send you kid to the school in your district...or you move.....vouchers end that prison system.....and open up opportunities for new schools to open to compete, and actually educate children.
That you morons would want to trap these kids in schools that are not educating the Children now......is insane....these inner city schools are not educating these children...I repeat....these inner city schools are not education these children now......and you want them stuck in those schools for some insane reason....
Thousands line up to get into lotteries for Charter schools.....and you guys say the parents don't care......you are insane...and with vouchers...charter schools will just be one of many options for education kids...and the quality will go up, and the cost wil go down...
Just like your fucking I-Phone...
My child is not an iPhone. I'm not sending her to the cheapest school I can find, I'm sending her to the best school I can afford. There is no reason why you can't have quality public schools, but you have to have the equipment, the computers, the books and the resources for children to learn.
You need a lot more than that, and I'm not talking about $$$
Yes you do, but when children don't have their own textbooks and have to share, or the school has no computers or labs for the kids, when teachers are having to buy classroom supplies out of their own pockets, how can you have quality education, even with good teachers.
And that is the system you have now...with all the tax money flowing into these school systems.....in Chicago..they have a 750 million dollar school pension payment they can't make, due in June.....and they are spending money for a horse stable at one of the public schools.....so don't tell me it is a money issue.....it is a misuse of funds issue....
