[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what is the incentive for private schools to admit voucher students?  How many slots are there now for these students in DC private schools?  How will that change if/when there are federal requirements or oversight attached to that money?  Without requirements or oversight, how are these schools held accountable for how they spend those tax dollars?  Will those schools be required to support kids with special needs as per IDEA?[/quote]

Stop thinking that this is a financial aid program to get your kid into Sidwell. It ins't. DC has vouchers now and that hasn't changed the good private school scene at all.  Read the article linked about to see where that voucher money really goes.[/quote]

Well, if you are referring to the link posted at 07:43 on 01/29 (I imagine there are many more links in this very long discussion but you were not specific), that article doesn't answer my questions. And neither did you, despite your attempt to be helpful.

So I still have these questions.  How to address the issue of oversight of private schools accepting voucher money?  Many charters are private run but they do have the Board. [/quote]
