Why do so many Tepublicans hate public schools? They know that funding for education is a zero-sum game. More money for privately-run charters and vouchers means less money for public schools.
Today, Governor Rick Scott of Florida signed into law a bill that transfers more money away from public schools to the privately-run schools.
The charter industry in Florida has been riddled with scandals and frauds. The for-profit charter industry is making money.
In the article cited, Valerie Strauss explains the legislation and the harm it will do to the public schools attended by the great majority of Florida’s students.
Why are Republicans like Rick Scott determined to shift money from public schools to private schools?
It is a scam. Shameful.
