All of the wealthy parents will use vouchers to subsidize their private education. It will do little to support lower-income students. So the rich kids will be off to privates/religious schools while the poor kids are left behind in schools with significantly less funding. It will be a death spiral for public schools.

Doubt this will happen but if it does it will be corrupt, hypocritical School Board members responsible for people getting fed up with the public schools. [/quote]

Nope. It will be the angry parents who made irrational decisions who flush our schools down the toilet. 
[/quote]

Did the parents have a reason to be angry? Was the school board doing something other than educating children, it's primary purpose?[/quote]

They were angry that the school board wanted to take a cautious approach to an unprecedented global health crisis.

Being angry doesn’t justify throwing a tantrum or making choices that will ultimately hurt our schools and our kids.

Unprecedented? Now who is ignoring science?[/quote]

What was the last pandemic that our school boards addressed? 
[/quote]

H1N1 comes to mind. But, hey, I know you can only remember as far back as the last election.[/quote]

Definitely no comparison with H1N1 and coronavirus. [/quote]

Really? Both were global pandemics. The Health forum on this site is because of the H1N1 pandemic. [/quote]
