Campaign rhetoric is one thing. Taking away school options where children are thriving is another. We can strengthen public schools and protect choices that are working for families.

It's easy to blame vOuCHerS for K-12 budget woes. It's harder to have honest conversations about the birth dearth/demographic cliff, pension debt, and administrative bloat.
➡️ "[S]chool districts have been slow to cut costs by closing schools and reducing staff as their student populations shrink, putting some at risk for insolvency."
➡️ Public school enrollment has ⬇️ by 1.4 million since fall 2019.
➡️ Enrollment is "projected to ⬇️ by another 2.7 million students by the 2031–32 school year."
➡️ States have amassed $400 BILLION in teacher pension debt -- $9,300 in debt per public school student.
➡️ Half of public school employees are non-teaching staff.
@ASmithAZ proposes eight ed finance policies states and districts should consider. ⤵️
Public school enrollment has dropped by 1.4 million students nationwide since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic and is projected to fall by another 2.7 million students by the 2031–32 school year.

Public dollars flow to private providers every day:
➡️ Medicare to private hospitals.
➡️ Pell Grants to private colleges.
➡️ SNAP to grocery stores.
➡️ Section 8 to private landlords.
➡️ Pre-K vouchers to private childcare providers.
This only becomes controversial when families choose a school outside the union-controlled K-12 monopoly.
.@GinaHinojosaTX’s pledge to take an axe to Texas’ education freedom programs breaks my heart for parents.
Texas has made so much progress, and the huge school choice waitlist shows that parents want these opportunities. I hope she reconsiders and that parents rise up to defend their school choice programs!

You’re not taking vouchers away from millionaires. You’re taking them away from teachers and nurses.

1. Because the system is outdated. Expecting one teacher to effectively teach 30 students, each with different gaps in understanding and vastly different learning needs and abilities, simply doesn’t make sense anymore.
2. There are significant behavior disruptions with little to no consequences. Students act out for a variety of reasons including boredom or being asked to work at a level beyond their cognitive abilities (refer back to #1).
3. We have administrators who force teachers to pass students along by curving 30s to 70s to protect graduation rates which are tied to funding. Gaps don’t disappear. They compound. Why do students have gaps? Because the curriculum moves at one speed. There is no “typical” student so why do we think there should be one speed at which every student should learn? (Refer back to #1)
4. Funding is tied to attendance. This creates perverse incentives. It means the student who just destroyed the room, returns the next day. The student who cussed the teacher out, returns in 30 minutes with a bag of Taki’s and an “apology.” The student who skips class to vape in the bathroom is given a behavior contract that states if she goes to class, her AP will DoorDash her food on Friday.
If we really want to talk about fixing schools, we start by looking at the outdated model and how they are funded.

The reason why the Public Education System is broken is because all the leaders and administrators are career educators who don’t understand efficiency or how to run a business.
And when you get someone who does know that, the career educrats demonize them.

Despite what Texas’s governor-elect, @GinaHinojosaTX says, vouchers aren’t a scam.
-4 in 5 students in the program come from low-income families
-1 in 4 has a disability.
Those students deserve the opportunity they were given.

School choice fuels competition & innovation in education and includes more than just private or nontraditional education. Open enrollment between public districts and the option of charter schools are crucial to serving all students!

An Ohio appeals court ruled EdChoice unconstitutional, putting vouchers for about 180,000 students at risk. The ruling is on hold while the Ohio Supreme Court decides. Parents shouldn't need a judge's permission to choose their own kid's school.

New York decided parents don’t need to see how schools are actually performing on AP exams, and the rankings took a nosedive for high-achieving schools like Success Academy as a result. When unions control the system, the first priority is protecting their power, not letting taxpayers and families see the results.

Ohio spent $1.173 billion on private school scholarships this year. A union president calls EdChoice "a handout to the rich." The biggest program averaged $5,114 a student. Autism scholarships averaged $30,318. That's money following kids, as it should.

Like the general public, teachers consistently underestimate per-pupil spending on public school students. Private school teachers come the closest to accurate spending numbers.

“The default system where students are assigned to a public school based on where they live instead of their needs has had decades to perfect its equity story. What is now emerging is instead a landscape where families have the power to find and select the option that actually fits their child.”
