On the other side we have instances of utterly abysmal secular public schools. Like LAUSD. Despite the efforts of thousands of hard working teachers, it’s a fail from lower management on up with terrible academic consequences for students.
So with the caveat that abuse is possible, I stand for vouchers and home schooling options for good parents in a tough spot like the city of Los Angeles.
I remember forced busing when sending my friends to urban schools and urban kids to the suburban valley was called a just solution, instead of fixing up the urban schools. Good parents need options besides moving or making more money for private schooling.
