For the 2022-23 school year, there are 143 magnet public schools serving 153,580 students in Virginia.

We also have specialty schools.

Vouchers? Not likely in VA, but I'm sure Youngkin will try.

[b]A voucher in Fairfax or Arlington is just a tax break for a family already sending their kid to private. [/b]I don't see it ever happening here. [/quote]

I don’t want to subsidize private school kids.

Not to mention private schools in these areas are already at capacity with paying families.  What slots would actually be available for someone to use with a voucher?  I could see vouchers working in more rural areas but not densely populated ones like NoVa.[/quote]

It's a moot point; a 10k voucher isn't going to be enough for a poor kid (the kids voucher advocates like to pretend benefit) to go to any decent private school [/quote]

That is not true.

The Catholic schools are affordable.  Plus they are heavily subsidized by the church. AND the schools all offer assistance of their own for students in need.

Why does something tell me you oppose any/ all vouchers, and you never seriously looked into what some schools cost, because you are far too rich to need a voucher? [/quote]
