What private school costs less than a public school? I would guess that most privates schools are considerably more in tuition costs.


The more toney private schools usually do cost more. But, not all. A little research reveals Catholic schools cost about 25 percent less. They don't have the massive overhead administrative staff the public schools do.

Competition would be a solution. The US universities are a combination of private and public. And, are world class. Parents at failing schools should be issued vouchers worth about 75 percent of the average cost to educate their children. The vouchers could be used at private schools, including religious schools. Perhaps, parents who home school should draw vouchers valued at the cost of the books their children use. Charter schools are another option. True, 50 percent fail. That means 50 percent succeed.

The NEA might get the idea and compete to keep their jobs and power. Enough of the NEA doing a sorry job of educating their charges. Children had been kept hostage too long.
