| Please do use DC as a petri dish experiment. I welcome getting something for my tax money. This will provide a catalyst for economic development like we have never seen. Your neighbors will actually stay. |
| Only if you hate public education. |
lol |

Whatever.
The money comes from somewhere, just FYI. As in, you and your neighbors are still paying. |
This. |
When it's not safe and and doesn't challenge kids, what good is it? |
We've already had a voucher program. |
| Looking forward to seeing if they can make a positive difference where the status quo is failing our students. |
| The wife of a billionaire who has never worked in a school and whose children went to private Christian schools. Plus, I don't think she has experience running a bureaucracy. She'll be a disaster. But since she and her husband are big political donors everyone will look the other way. |
| Look, Ashley Carter remembered not to log in this time! |
| Nightmare. She'll do nothing for the kids in this country. |
She herself never attended public school, she's never taught nor been an administrator in a public school, and her kids never attended a public school. Perfect! Let's put her in charge of the nation's public schools. Good, good. Excellent plan. |
In need of fixing. When your kitchen gets outdated, do you take a wrecking ball to it and just eat out at restaurants because clearly the kitchen wasn't good enough? Or do you renovate your kitchen? This notion of increasing choice / marketplace / tinkle-on-children education theories is a load of crap and a money grab. Improve public schools. Don't rob them. |
LOL! I had to go get this.
The privatization movement is sickening. |
| Vouchers won't work in DC. If there were a market for private schools that cost $10,000/year the schools would already exist. |
