Ohio’s Voucher System Harms Our Public Schools
The expansion of Ohio’s voucher system significantly benefits private schools while stealing educational dollars away from public schools. While originally designed to help low-income students in struggling districts, the voucher system has now become a universal entitlement for families of all income levels. This unconstitutional system has grown rapidly across the state as well as in our own districts. Please see this collaborative letter from the Fulton County Superintendents for more information. https://5il.co/3retw
