Most taxpayers want their tax dollars to go to the classroom for teaching and learning. Yet time and again, some charters spent far more than public schools on administration. In 2014-2015, Arizona charter schools spent over $128 million more than Arizona public schools on management costs. One charter chain, Basis, spent nearly $12 million on administrative costs in one year, for fewer than 9000 students — all hidden from public review.

The Racist History Of “School Choice”

We are less than six months into 2021, and to date, “school choice” legislation has been introduced in at least 20 states, half of which are in the South. Most of these bills promote tax credits, school vouchers, or “education savings accounts.” All of them drain money from underfunded, under-resourced public schools into private schools. And while some proponents of these bills say that they will improve education opportunities for Black and Brown students and students from low-income families, the truth is that they do not

school choice is racist!!! that’s why poor block parents want it so badly.

partial scholarships are worthless, that’s what you’re saying. anything that doesn’t cover the full
cost is useless?

here’s a study showing school choice improves test scores at both private and public schools, lowers the cost of education ( which is why teachers unions hate it and why democrats oppose it), and lessens racial
inequality.

it’s common sense that it works. not all schools are equal.
