I disagree with the governor. Development should be left to the markets, and not hindered simply because the local governments have planned poorly, for schools or anything else. If the governor truly believes that lagging schools should hold up growth, then he should fix the schools, addressing causes rather than symptoms. Want to alleviate overcrowding? Vouchers, anyone?

What makes you think that private schools are empty? And, Gov. Bush does have two voucher programs in place, with a 3rd on the way. And, FYI, not every private school in this state WANTS to accept voucher students.
Gov. Bush is on the right track -- there needs to be more and better planning up front.

BTW, he has already implemented a comprehensive plan for improving public schools. But, schools are often overwhelmed because of the continuous increase in population. You have to "fix" that growth management problem.

PS --

Speaking as a FL certified teacher, I think his administration has spent more time and effort improving public school education than any administration in FL's history.
