Along with this, another thing the Republicans ought to be doing and what they promised at one time and that was the get rid of the Department of Education and return it to the states. With education BEING run by government and the NEA, EVERY CHILD WILL BE LEFT BEHIND!

Privatization of school districts would be best. Let the schools compete for the best teachers, and the students, compete for school.

How could a Voucher program get passed?

Every time I see a comment like yours, I'm reminded of the 16 year old mentally retarded student I taught who was pregnant with her 2nd child.

Do you think she ought to homeschool her children?

Do you think she'd ever make enough money to send them to a private school if there were no public schools?

Like it or not, public school is the only chance some children have to make a decent life for themselves.
