Indiana being used AGAIN as an example of why vouchers produce bad results.

Who would choose an education policy that failed in other states? TX parents have the right to know this is an expensive, failed policy that will almost entirely benefit wealthy parents already sending their kids to private schools. @GinaForAustin @jamestalarico @RoyceWestTX @MomsAGAbbott @TexasAFT @UnionmanTX @dsknight84 @joshcowenMSU @RYHTexas @DisRightsTx @txstateteachers @tasanet @tepsamark #txlege

@DerekWBlack Combine this with language in HB1002 - that allows a district to be completely “charterized,”or turned into an all-charter district, by removing the requirement that the “governing body” must provide a non-charter public school that students of the same age or grade can attend.

Indiana bill to dissolve school districts in places where half the students attend charters or private schools probably not going anywhere (yet). But bill giving charter schools a share of districts’ property tax revenue is heading to the Senate floor. chalkbeat.org/indiana/2025/0…

Excellent column on IN school funding by @IC4PE and @ICPE_MC leaders, via @INCapChronicle indianacapitalchronicle.com/2025/02/03/sch…

A very good bill. Last school year alone nearly $439 million public tax dollars were siphoned away into private, mostly religious, schools, with nearly no guardrails. Guardrails are needed on a program that aims to be made universal this session. #sb320 indianacoalitionforpubliced.org/2025/01/16/leg…

New Indiana bill would dissolve public schools in any district where 51% of students attend a private school, charter, or homeschool. Remaining district schools would become charters. I see 101 constitutional, policy, & financial problems. forbes.com/sites/petergre…

@INDSRSA Dumb question: is there such a thing as a rural charter school?
Probably doesn't work in the business model.

How can Heritage Foundation devise a plan to dismantle public education when public ed’s heritage dates to a 1785 federal founding document—a year before the Constitution was penned? Goal isn’t heritage, tradition, or rule of law, but prerogative & power. thehill.com/homenews/educa…

Reposting from last week in hopes people will share, comment, clarify, dispute, etc. IN is "reinventing" the high-school diploma. Seems like kind of important. inschoolmatters.wordpress.com/2024/07/01/gps…

IN. has been studying the Swiss Model of Ed. We found it starts with Switzerland Investing 5.7% of GDP into education (K-College), 40% of businesses supporting and paying for apprenticeships, and 70% of students staying with the company post-college. IN. is at 2.5% GDP. 2023

@arizona_sos @CNN @andersoncooper In Indiana our private schools get larger annual voucher windfalls! Roncalli High School received $5.6 million this year in unaccountable taxpayer funding. @andersoncooper

Terrible. Vouchers are education’s predatory lending.
Setting aside that 3/4 voucher users were already in private school—and those schools reject anyone they want—vouchers devastate learning for the kids who do switch.
Worse than what COVID-19 and Katrina did to academics.

Jay-Z's Roc Nation will spearhead an educational campaign in Philadelphia that helps students K-12 from low-income households secure about $300 million in scholarships to attend the city's private schools. Events will be held by Roc Nation to bring awareness to Pennsylvania Award for Student Success (PASS)—Senate Bill 757—legislation helping to increase education opportunities for underprivileged youth in lowest-performing public schools.

"two-thirds of voucher recipients in 2023-24 had never attended an Indiana public school. Most were not from poor families......The average family income for a voucher student was $99,121"

Imagine what $439 million could have done for Indiana's public schools this year? 🤔

The real headline in the state’s report is that 67.5% of Indiana voucher users in 2023-24 had never been in Indiana public schools—up from 63.4% in 2022-23.
Nearly spot-on with every other state estimate of ~7/10 voucher users never having attended public school.
