Whichever way the court decides, it will mean the end of PUBLIC education.

sure that it won't be the end of PRIVATE education??

Once they send gov't checks to a private school they will begin to issue new "standards". Slippery slope, ask Grove City College, who had to submit to federal rules on all sorts of stuff, even though the school took no federal aid, just their students received federal student loans. since then they are one of I think 3 schools in the country that take no federal aid nor do their students!!!

It hasn't meant that in Maine and Vermont -- states with 200+ years of experience in the field.

"Once they send gov't checks to a private school they will begin to issue new "standards". "

"Gov't checks" will be found to be unconstitutional if applied to funding schools of any sort not related to our national defense. This means that ALL schools not covered under our constitutional provision for self defense will become "private". No law could ever eliminate "private" schools, but obeying the law of the constitution could possibly eliminate government-funded "public" schools.
