Are school vouchers a good thing or not? If we have school vouchers will it be good or bad for public education? Are School vouchers the way to improve education in the US?
This is a timely topic now that school are preparing their budgets and tax increases. You ideas would be helpful and interesting.

These vouchers could be a good thing, but I think everyone needs to realize that education is important, and actually people that aren't in school should be involved as well. It takes a village to raise a child, so parents, grandparents, single parents, teens, business leaders, elderly, young and old should all want to IMPROVE our status in the community, but guess what? I don't see that happening.
Perhaps it's because we don't connect what we learn in school to the "real world" (both teacher and student). Perhaps it's all the textbook teachers who only go by the text? Perhaps we should try to make units that connect not only what they learn in school, but also the real world approach as well.
