Quote:A voucher program creates competition. When parents decide which school is better the schools are forced to compete for students. If high school A is graduating kids that can't read and high school B is graduating kids ready for college the money flows to high school B unless high school A gets their act together.

 

Or unless High School A has a better marketing campaign, or maybe they offer to teach Creationism while High School B doesn't.  Maybe High School A has teacher-led school prayer, which draws in more parents than High School B, despite High School B having a higher rate of literacy. 


Then what about High School B refuses to accept your students, and you're left with the choice of High School A or High School C (which is even worse than high school A)
