Landmark school choice law covers 90% of the students in one state

Excerpt:

Karma is coming calling for the disgraceful teachers' unions that have kept children from attending school for a year in much of the country. Successfully shaking down the federal government for nine figures' worth of additional funding, they have ignored the science that says young children are at almost no risk from COVID. The cost to children and to the nation is unfathomable, with child suicides soaring and the future ability to function in a complex technological society impaired for a generation of future citizens.

It is my fervent hope that the selfishness, greed, and indifference to the welfare of children of the unions will finally break the monopoly of government school bureaucracies and see parents free to use taxpayer funding for the education of their children at any school of their choice. Let the bloated, inefficient bureaucracies of the government schools compete with focused, efficient private schools — existing and yet to be founded — that are not tied to lowest common denominator standards and not force-feeding left wing hate-America garbage like the 1619 Project.

That will be interesting to see how it develops.

Many students have already transitioned to private schools, which are fully functional. There is no reason for those students to return to the public system.

Fewer students in the public system, fewer tax dollars needed, fewer employed teachers. Hopefully enough pressure to break the unions' hold over the system.

Schools here are open....out teachers are getting a 4.5 percent raise.....long overdue. The taxpayers overwhelmingly passed a referendum to raise taxes. I will pay $75 more dollars this year. Pffft.

What state?

Wi.....our school is open 5 days per week. Half the parents CHOSE VOLUNTARILY, that means they had a choice. In other words they chose themselves to keep their kids virtual. So to summarize for you they wanted to keep their kids virtual. The parents had the choice to send their kids back versus 5 day in person. So the parents got to choose. Make sense to you?
