I am all for getting rid of common core, but I really hope they do not start allowing “school choice.”
I’m a parent that sacrifices so my daughter can go to a private school. Half the reason to send your kid to a private school is to get them away from the kids whose parents do not value education enough to make sacrifices for it.
My daughter’s elementary school just started allowing some kids from disadvantaged communities to go there, with their tuition paid by the school. These kids have already started vandalizing the bathrooms and causing other problems.
Government keeps paying more and more for helping kids go to college, but nobody’s tuition ever really goes down does it?

School choice was mentioned countless times by Trump during the campaign. He’s for it, especially for the inner cities where the schools are garbage.

I totally agree with you about "school choice" vouchers for the reasons you state.

If government gave everybody a $5000 voucher to use for tuition, all tuition would go up by $5000. It's simply the law of supply and demand. Too many citizens including most of our so-called "leaders" have little or no understanding of basic economics.
Get the government out of education altogether and let the free market work.
