[quote=Anonymous][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] Yes. It doesn't work. It doesn't help reduce segregation, and it doesn't help education. Kids do no better, or worse.[/quote] Wrong. Mike Keri did and the AA students accepted did slightly better. V popular and now a lotto system lA did too and their charter schools are coveted. V popular and now a lotto system dC did as well for charter schools, v popular and now a lotto system. In all cases the teachers unions take offense, gather national funds to lobby against and they bully local politicians w union votes and power.[/quote] I am not sure there is agreement on the effects of DC charter schools... Often it is the higher income families that have the ability to get their kids to distant schools and the neighborhood schools suffer. [/quote]
