How about repealing all taxes used to fund schools (property taxes especially) and requiring parents to pay for school? Probably not realistic though. Some parents would still need financial assistance and there are state constitutional provisions mandating that the state provide an education to all. Vouchers with a provision that the government not be allowed to inquire as to which institution the money is directed by the parent? Feasible?
Most state constitutions that I have read on this subject limit themselves to promoting the education of children to be useful citizens. I've yet to see one (it may be out there but I don't know of it) that specifically gives children a RIGHT to an education.
In Pennsylvania, school codes from 1949 state this, but not the Constitution of PA.
Vouchers where the state has no oversight - not likely. How would you feel if your tax dollars went to vouchers to pay for an education in a madrassas here i the U.S. ? I know I wouldn't like it.
No, the only way is to stop funding education via tax money.
I'd be happy to see all those consitutional provisions repealed. Nobody is "entitled" to anything that involves forcible taking of someone else's property.
But given the reality of innocent children with parents who are irresponsible enough to have children when they can't afford to support them (including paying for school), or parents who don't give a crap about their children's futures and spend all their money on booze or vacations or cars, I expect virtually all local communities would choose to set up some system to make sure these children get educated.
