Don’t fall for this @SenatorTimScott Students have choice. Public, charter and private with all kinds of scholarships and financial aide. DeVos has been waiting to ruin public education since being picked. @realDonaldTrump and DeVos will be fired.

This is not a happy article. The grants are great, but what happens when they're gone? Ultimately, the private schools will raise tuition making it impossible for these parents to afford - K-12 school prices will balloon out of control much like college tuition has.

School Choice gives families who can afford private school an additional tax break. To do that, School Choice "defunds" public schools giving a portion of taxpayer dollars to fund PRIVATE SCHOOLS, including religious schools that do not pay local, state, or federal taxes.

Yes and those students come in every color!

What about students who don’t have parents to make a choice? What about children who need to take the bus to school and/or to eat meals at school? What about children who need IEPs that private schools don’t offer? Why not invest in public school instead and help more people?

You continue to attempt to hurt black kids by taking money from public schools to give to private schools. If private schools would like some of our tax dollars join the public school systems. You are a joke!!!!!
