Pros And Cons Of School Vouchers
School vouchers allow parents to use state funds to pay for their children to attend private schools, charter schools, magnet schools, out-of-district public schools, and, also, religious schools. In most states, the funds flow from the government directly to the private schools. Eligible families under a voucher program receive a designated amount of scholarship toward each child’s education at a public or private school; the amount of money varies by state, but the average range is $2,000 to $5,000.
