Louisiana is embarking on the nation's boldest experiment in privatizing public education, with the state preparing to shift tens of millions in tax dollars out of the public schools to pay private industry, businesses owners and church pastors to educate children.
Starting this fall, thousands of poor and middle-class kids will get vouchers covering the full cost of tuition at more than 120 private schools across Louisiana, including small, Bible-based church schools
TONY DIGIROLAMO- GOTTA LOVE GOVERNOR BOBBY!
"'We are changing the way we deliver education," said Governor Bobby Jindal, a Republican who muscled the plan through the legislature this spring over fierce objections from Democrats and teachers unions.'
This is the way to go! Finally someone leading!
This guy took over a state that was a basket case. He didn't shrink back he's the one leading the way forward.
