[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Has any state tried giving generous vouchers to low-income families? I can see how that would help reduce racial and SES segregation.[/quote] But it wouldn't. All the research shows that low income people aren't able to ship their kids to a school outside the neighborhood because they are working 2-3 jobs. [/quote] And a lot of low income kids dont want the stigma of being seen as the kid who gets to go to a rich school because he's poor. People don't want to be seen as charity recipients. Same reason why MCPS schools that provide free breakfast will make it available to all rather than singling out the poor kids. [/quote]
