Prop 38
School vouchers are the educational topic of the millennium. In California, if Prop. 38 were passed it would grant K-12 students a $4,000-a-year voucher to receive private schooling. This proposition has some ups and some downs in my viewpoint and in this paper I will tell you about school vouchers, I will also tell you about the opponents and the supporters of the bill, the candidates for President stance on the issue and finally my thoughts about school vouchers. "... Proposition 38, the initiative that would grant a $4,000-a-year voucher to K-12 students to attend a private school..."(Saunders A-24). The vouchers have been tested in a few cities including Dayton, Ohio, Washington D.C. and New York. Some bad news for supporters of Prop. 38 were that "... students offered the vouchers - 47 percent in Washington, 46 percent in Dayton and 24 percent in New York- did not use them"(Zernike 2).
"A Lifeline For Poor Kids In Bad Schools" San Francisco Chronicle. html * Stockton Teachers Association 30 August 2000* Wickham, Dewayne. They are trying to get across their point that school vouchers are not the way to go. Like I said school vouchers would be more likely to get passed if they had a guarantee. Bibliography Bibliography* Bush, George W. This is why it makes me unsure whether or not I'd vote for the bill. They can under educate the kids with little negative effect"(Saunders A-24). If there was a guarantee in vote YES without a doubt. This they say is true because the vouchers will bring up competition among schools and force them to better their acts. I guess its save for me to say VOTE YES ON 38. Bush also wants the betterment of America's education.
