[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d open more schools and make them all smaller. Better education that way. But that’s a pipe dream because of taxes.[/quote]

Not a pipe dream.  All we have to do is get government out of the schools business, and let people take their kid's education dollars to whatever school they want.   Then you get lots of specialized schools that people can choose from.[/quote]

+ a million
School choice.[/quote]

I'm a die hard Democrat who support school choice. I think that the McKay Scholarship in FL is great...if you read the fine print very closely and are ok w/losing an IEP and everything that goes along with it in return for your kid being able to go to private school. However, my concern is regarding how the new batch of private schools that pop up when school choice is implemented are regulated. Look at Florida, look at DC, look at Baltimore. Once school choice comes to town, so do a ton of shitty schools. And often the kids are the ones who suffer when their parents put them into a school that isn't in any way accredited or regulated or held to any standards.[/quote]
