65. Vouchers take funds away from Public Schools
Edited on Wed Jun-14-06 02:42 PM by melissinha
From what I understand there is a "per student allotment", when a voucher is accepted, that per student allotment is withheld from the Public Schools that count on those funds and the voucher is a portion of that per student allotment in the form of a voucher to "defray" tuition costs..... Its just a means to defund Public Schools and save tax payer dollars for more important things like Military Defense and Military Contractors..... :sarcasm:

There are still some good schools in this country, unfortunately most people don't see the benefit in moving to the Midwest or can't count on a job to get there.
