So Ye’s school put the best interest of the students first? So I can take a broad brush and say all charter schools don’t take the best interest of students like you just did.
Reynolds is all in with this conman to destroy Iowa Public Schools

I guess I don’t see it that way which is fine. Just from my own experiences I have seen where kids have gone from bad situations into better and have succeed in school and sport. But most don’t have that option so it makes me partial to wanting that option for them.
Under my system we collect taxes statewide and divert some of them collected from IC and Waukee and West Lake Okoboji and divert them to DSM and rural schools so they can pay more for better staffing and facilities. And religious schools can still largely fund themselves and remain free to teach their religious teachings. It's really uncomplicated basic stuff.
Buts it’s not solving the primary issue of education in the state of Iowa? It is the wrong tool to fix the problem.
Your system? Is that something your pushing or is being used currently?
Well my example of public schools keeping kids home during covid covered a much larger percentage than just Kanye Wests school.
State of Iowa collects income taxes and its counties collect property taxes levied on real estate. Public schools are funded by a combination of these (oversimplification but basically how it works). I'm suggesting increasing the funding from the state to school districts that are struggling. I know, radical when compared with vouchers.
I know I’ll get heat for this but in NY urban schools will get most of their budget reimbursed from the state. So our closest district has a >$150mm budget(city population 30k). 80% of which is covered by the state and they are one of the worst districts in the county.
Well if they're already well funded in NY, it sounds like you should be pushing for them to be able to open-enroll to better public school districts like the one you're in (like is already possible in Iowa). My mediocre public high school had students open-enroll from a county away just to play on a better football team. If I had a driver's license and gas money and been emancipated from my parents, I could have open-enrolled to the school district I started 9th grade in. That's already all possible here.
I'm all for choice. But private and public dollars are completely different and should stay that way.

It's all been said. And, it doesn't much matter what you or anyone else thinks about if this should happen or not.
Reynolds is going to pursue this hard this legislative session. We will see...
Because she's a culture was c*nt who doesn't give a shit about Iowa
great way to dumb down the populous. this is a giveaway to religious zealots that homeschool and choose private school (i'm sure the vast majority vote R). These people have a myopic world view and hope to keep it looking that way.
If public schools and homeschoolers were forced to test and follow the same requirements as public school, you might have something. But that is not the case and has not even been discussed because that information would eventually lead to the conclusion that private schools do not teach better, they just have more affluent students that test higher.
Again, private schools will increase their price to keep the "undesirables" out.
If passed, private schools should be kicked out of the IHSAA and IGHSAU. Churches should be taxed as well.
Imagine the R's head's if you asked for 6k in basic income for poor people.

Do you support the giveaway / tuition forgiveness that Biden is championing?
And LOL at the union and association kicking out private schools.
The Khan Academy is an example and one that could be a basis for public school reform.
You keep ignoring the fact that few will actually have those options.
Ask him a question he doesn't want to answer and he goes away. For a while anyway.
That is not how publicly collected tax money is spent. That is how an individual spends his/her money. The function of government is NOT to become a family...it is to govern, regulate and insure The rights of all its people’s.
where’s that public school that has that 10-1 classroom teacher/student ratio? Now with special Ed kids where frequently 3-1 or smaller ratios are mandated, sometimes the numbers get “mis-conskewed” ( intentional).
no but let's be honest, what $$ giveaway to the rich have you or R's not supported? Especially when they are much more$$..
I've answered all questions. I have things to do.
I get that, and there were desirable locations that we couldn't afford as well,... We simply did the adult thing and chose the best combination of school district and affordability that we could put together.
And my point is that many families that live in "bad" school districts have done the same thing. Moving to a different district is simply not a viable option for a lot of people.
Right. That's why they soon won't have to move anymore to have access to a better school.
Fall begins on 9/21 and ends on 12/21 every year (give or take a day). You've spun around so much on this you've gone brain dead.
He goes away only to come back and lie. Tell me where the answers are to the question I posed in posts #136, #215 and #221?
You throw untruths around all the time, get caught and then slink away for a time. Very predictable.
