Guest Commentary: Ohio Lawmakers are Giving More Than $1 Billion to Private Schools While Public Schools Suffer - Lemmy.World

Money intended to be used for educating children, is instead being used for…

Educating children.

If the dollars per child amount isn’t enough, raise taxes. It’s ridiculous to complain about not getting money for children you don’t have to teach.

What private schools, and worse- home schools, are allowed to teach and not teach, is a far cry from education.

Private schools can exist, but they shouldn’t get public funding if they are teaching religion, denying evolution, forgoing sex ed, and failing to meet basic educational standards.

That’s a great argument and I completely agree
