Is it bad A teacher doesn’t know what school vouchers are? Asking for a teacher |
+1 Especially when those "choices" disenfranchise the most vulnerable. HARD PASS. |
If there is demand there will be supply. |
Maybe more churches would open schools. They usually have space. And larger class sizes. Or newly established privates could rent church space. I know our private did when it began 50+ years ago. It has its own building today though. Or start a co-op, such as River Farm. All kinds of possibilities. Get resourceful. They’re your kids. And the public school system is FAILING them. This pandemic could last another 24 months. Read up. |
The money is available though. Fcps just paid how much for that racism speaker? Plus we have a democratic administration now. Democrats like to spend money on these things. Folks talk about giving more money to schools all the time. Giving parents choice via a tiered systen would be the best way- especially for vulnerable students. Everyone would benefit. |
Religiously affiliated cost far less. Wonder whether there’s a potential partnership....? |
Congrats. How old are they? And even then not everyone is having a good go of things. |
No. They need to push the unions out of the way. Otherwise, it’s time to go elsewhere with tax dollars |
What is this? Republican day? Haven’t you Rs effed up the country enough? |
Or... invest all that money in the public schools to make them better. Build more schools to reduce class size. Pay public school teachers more money to attract and retain the best talent. Upgrade technology. Give every child from K-12 a laptop. If we make our public schools as good as private schools, there will be no need for random new private schools to be built. Can you imagine all of the fighting over applications to get into the best private schools? Equity issues, having to drive your kid a half hour each way to school because that was the closest private school you could get into? |
Not everyone would open such. Some open in church basements, etc. pick the aesthetic of your choice. |
You’d pay the same amount you currently do as a tax payer. Read up. |
I'm the OP and a hardcore democrat. |
Nope. I’m a D. Just tired of the teacher union BS. |
Some might open in office buildings. Some already are. Plenty of office space likely coming on market. |
