Quote:Giving parents money to give to the school seems like a backwards way to do things. Maybe I'm missing it all but I don't really see how that helps anything?


What's wrong with students just picking a school they want to go to like normal? If its good and they do well then all is well, if its bad and they are struggling , the parents can just move them to a different one.
 

Schools are mostly assigned by geography here, and richer neighborhoods generally have more funding for schools because they are paid for by local property taxes. You can't just pick a public school, you attend the school for the district where you live.
