As if one study proves anything, never mind broader questions that weren't addressed.Ever heard of the home schooling movement? Millions of Americans are so disgusted with Government Monopoly Schools that they'd rather teach their own children than allow them to attend them.The graduation rate in most city schools is around 50%. Roughly half of the kids never learn even basic English or math.Just freaking stunning that moonbats like you can see that and conclude it's a success; that it outperforms what private schools can do.Why was the WashDC voucher program so wildly popular? Because parents are stupid?Being utterly clueless is my expectation of you, and you consistently fulfill it."Home schooling movement?" Home schooling has existed as long as civilization. What **** drug have you been using? Speaking of which, I really don't have anything against home schooling. I'd just like to know if it's actually effective or not, but I haven't come across an unbiased study yet. Oh well. Several voucher programs were tried in the NorthEast. Milwaukee and Cleveland are the most widely known, and have both delivered sub-par results. Also, private schools cost more (which speaks volumes about private schools, since they can't even deliver consistently better results with pretty much infinite resources from wealthy families and donors). Actually, the REAL purpose of destroying public schools isn't to "improve" education quality - that has already been established to be a failure; it's a tactic invented by segregationist idiots like yourself to have the privilege to manipulate the system and have wealthy, white parents send their kids into sheltered institutions. So much for the "principles upon which the nation was founded." Edited by Avenger_of_Justice, 09 May 2011 - 01:23 AM.
