[quote=Anonymous]I think vouchers will probably happen in VA. Youngkin will support them. And for some kids they’ll make a positive difference—kids whose parents can almost but not quite afford elite privates. I don’t think that’s the majority of kids. And, there is not enough elite private capacity in this area to wholesale absorb FCPS. So the majority of kids will either get a less well-funded public experience or a second-third rate private experience. So on balance vouchers will leave the area worse off. And I completely see how this happened. FCPS has made it extremely clear that they have no interest in supporting working families (leaving aside the boundary studies— all the early dismissals, prolonged closures, etc) and they’ve had a million excuses. But at the end of the day when you don’t support the parents they don’t support you…[/quote]
