    It's already happened in Iowa.. We used to have some of the highest ranked public schools in the country. Now the money is given to private schools, where 75% of the students given the money ALREADY WENT THERE. And many private schools promptly raised their tuition. 🙄

    I homeschooled my kids for over 20 years and received no government funding. I happily paid my taxes so that the public schools were available to those who needed them in our community. We didn’t homeschool because we hate the public school system, though. My son randomly started reading at age two and by age five was reading at a fifth-grade level, but had the emotional responses of a three-year-old child. There was absolutely no way I was sending my son to public school. It was hard to find secular curriculum materials back then, since the vast majority of homeschoolers were Christian and teaching their children creation science (one disturbing book had a man standing with dinosaurs on the cover). We avoided all of that. I’m a Christian, but I’m not nuts. 😂 Plus, I’m married to an atheist, so we had a great balance there. Now I’m a Christian living with three atheists. 🤷‍♀️
    True homeschoolers have always fought against the idea of vouchers because taking money from the government actually invites them into your homeschool and may jeopardize what you have planned for your own children. When you homeschool, you can more directed studies for each child because you have less students. The materials are designed specifically for use at home, not in large classrooms. Government interference just might defeat the purpose of homeschooling when it’s being done right.

    I am all for school choice. However, in states like Texas, this option already exists. I know as my son went to private school in Texas. Diverting funds from public schools only decreases the funding needed to educate the vast majority of students in our states, many of whom don't have access to any other school options. Nutshell, passing this statute doesn't create new private or charter schools, it only takes away the ability for public schools to have the resources needed to educate the majority of youth who live in them.

    That voucher program is only going to hurt Public School System. They will receive less federal funds which means their education programs will be limited. City taxes will be raised and instead of putting the money in the public schools to better the public schools education system it's to help those others school outside. It's good for parents wanting their children to get a better education which could be in the public school systems if they would put more effort to make it better. Everyone isn't going to receive vouchers they're going and those who will receive vouchers best believe they will be cherry picking who will be accepted in those schools.
    It's always those who have money able to send their children to the best private schoold making sure their children get the best education. God sees everything and knows all things and if their intentions are wrong God will expose ithem like He is doing now. Be bless

    Vouchers have always been a terrible idea.

    It's working... the distrust is rampant. I just want my children to learn math, science, english, and history. What I do not want is the children not being able to talk about currents events, or about racial tensions or how they need to follow the money to find out who owns people as puppets and not have lgbt shoved down their throats in elementary school. When they are little kids, they need FACTS, not vague concepts, nor fear of calling someone the wrong pronoun, and upsetting someone. You need to keep mature discussions for when they are older and can understand what is going on.

    Perhaps if you want people to trust their institutions, you should make the institutions trustworthy. I’ve watched enough school board meetings to recognize the frustrations of parents being called bigots for voicing concerns about what is being taught, what is being kept from parents, and even who their children are sharing bathrooms with.
    After two years of fighting with teachers to just do their basic job during COVID, we’ve discovered charter/private schools are eager to keep children learning and competitive. Why should parents send their kids to public schools when the children of politicians get sent to private institutions?

      @@TheCoolJavelin7 CRT is inherently racist because it focuses on race as the primary determinant of an individual's experiences and outcomes. By asserting that race is the most significant factor in shaping society, CRT disregards the impact of other factors such as socioeconomic status, individual choices, and cultural differences. This emphasis on race as the central issue fosters division and resentment, rather than promoting unity and understanding among different groups.
