[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The site dubbed the areas with the worst school systems as Nevada, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi and, lastly, the District of Columbia. CHEERS! http://www.businessinsider.com/states-with-best-and-worst-school-systems-2014-8[/quote] Nevada, Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi are neither an LEA nor a "school system."[/quote] Looks like Nevada got smart and will give EVERYONE a voucher to attend a private/parochial if they choose. So if the system is bad, at least your tax dollars can be useful to find a proper alternative.[/quote] It is going to be quite interesting to observe how that works (or doesn't). If it improves academic performance overall, I'm all for it. Better for parents to be able to send kids to good established schools than to fully new ones (many, not all, charters) or to disastrous ones (some public schools in poor neighborhoods).[/quote]
