The NYC schools are the poster child for supporting school choice. Give the parents of these children a voucher for $34,000 per year to choose the school for their children and watch two things happen - First, the competition will force the existing system to either improve or die. Secondly (and more importantly), watch the children get a superior education which sets them up for greater success in their lives. Everybody wins except the current incompetent/lazy public school teachers. The good teachers have nothing to fear.
You know it isn't being flushed down the toilet. It ends up is somebody's pockets and Hochul is getting something for her inaction. The teachers unions fight any alternative forms of education. Parents really need to change their minds. Only they have to power to do it.
Wow! Incredible waste….
Always about Other People's Money.

Doesn't even have to be that big a voucher. The Success schools make do with less than half that, and the kids do far better.
The Teachers Union holiday parties must be crack-alackin'!
