[ Vouchers, Choice and Charters spell the end of LOCAL ELECTED control. State control is NOT a good option. ]

The sheer existence of the Federal Department of Education and teacher’s unions invalidates your point.

At least with vouchers parents can “vote with their feet”, which is better than union control and federal control.

Ideally we would like to make it “like it was”, but as long as the Federal Dept of Education exists, vouchers and charters are the only escape hatch parents have.

You may be able to “vote with your feet” but vouchers are TAX dollars and carry strings of control with them. Charters are part of the system. Homeschool if you can but don’t use state CYBER options, as they are just more of the same system you want to escape. I just urge using caution as you choose. Question who is promoting CHOICE AND CHANGE.
