Which should qualify you for a tax rebate/credit in the amount of your private school tuition.
I get angry every time someone refers to the public school system as "a free education". BS! My father built his house in 1961 and is still shoveling money at the same school I graduated from in 1992. Where's the "fairness" in that? For what he's paid in they could have sent me to a private school and a four year school and been done for a long time now.
Of course no political whore wants to seem like they aren't supporting "our children."Looks like to me, the tax increase will probably pass as teachers/administrators seem to wield a lot of power nowadays. https://www.wdrb.com/news/floyd-cou...cle_5538870c-3d8d-11ea-929d-eb42d63afc69.html
Imagine how popular I was with the soccer mom crowd in our social circle when I continually called BS on this Red for Ed propaganda campaign.
...like I care.
We make fun of "it's for the children", and rightfully so, but people fall for it every day.
Red for Ed!
Think of the children!
I'm sure all the proponents (the leaders, not the sheeples following them) realize that state government has NOTHING to do with teacher salaries, which are set by the local districts?
What about the vaunted "home rule," where most decisions should be made locally? Well, unless we want the state to intercede.
