DeVos and Religious Schools

[Dave Roberts]

I see that today the POTUS and Secretary DeVos are headed into a Catholic School in Orlando. Where are the Baptists who for generations fought to keep public dollars from going to Catholic Schools. Guess the SBC has lost its voice against parochial school support. That leaves only the BJC to stand on this. BTW, if aid goes in vouchers to Catholic Schools, won't the First Amendment also require such aid go to Islamic Schools?

[Mrs Haruo]

If vouchers are to be going out to private religious schools, I would hope they would go to ALL schools that meet some some standard of education including Islamic schools, and private schools for special needs kids that aren't going to get a proper education in so called "public schools" if the GOP gets their way with this new bill that has just been introduced that will rip all the progress that has been made in the last 50 years in making our education system responsive to the needs of as many children as possible. I'm just glad my grandchildren are in the upper grades and not just starting out in kindergarten now.

The precedent for government funded school choice was set in place long ago.
