Present one argument in favor and one against the use of school vouchers



What will be an ideal response?


ANS: Possible answer:In
favor—parents in low-income areas want and deserve the opportunity to send their children to better schools outside their neighborhoods. School choice gives low-income children a better education, and it offers local schools the incentive to improve.
Against—The use of school vouchers diverts resources from local schools and drains away the best students. It will leave inner-city schools impoverished and worsen inequality in education.
