Amendments to the voucher bill - requiring that
private schools have nondiscriminatory admissions and hiring policies; that voucher recipients take the Colorado Student Assessment Program test; and that some funding remain with
school districts to cover fixed costs - also helped to
earn the
Children's Campaign's support.
While the racial, social, political, and economic consequences of poorly performing
schools are innumerable and harsh, they won't be felt by Burris who
earned $ 268,000 as a principal; or Ravitch who became a fierce public
school advocate only after her
children completed
private school; or Valerie Strauss — another
private school parent — who uses her Washington Post real estate to bolster all the drivel teachers» unions send her (without mentioning her connection to communication contracts with labor).
