Why Public Schools? The Growth of “School Choice” and Vouchers

For each reading, you should prepare for class in the following way: 1. Attempt to summarize the author’s main point(s) in a sentence or two. 2. Identify specific terms, concepts, or passages that you found either confusing or interesting and enlightening (in other words, what would you like to bring up as a point of clarification or discussion). 3. Provide a reaction or two to the reading: What do you like or dislike about it? Agree or disagree with? How can you relate it to your experience?
these are the guide questions dont need to answer：
--How and why have some countries or localities moved away from traditional public schools and implemented different kinds of "choice?" What is the reasoning or desire behind such changes?
--What kinds of schools did YOU attend, and were you satisfied with them? Why or why not?
--If you had 2 kids in a "C" rated school in Indiana, and you qualified for both the "Indiana Choice Scholarship Program" and knew that you could also get your kids into a "B" rated Charter school, what would you do?: a) Keep your kids in the "traditional" public school and pressure the School Board to improve quality? b) Take the scholarship and go to a private religious school, even if you had to pay $3,000 for each student out of pocket?, or c) Send your kids to the Charter school?

--What has been the result of voucher programs and "school choice" in Chile?
--What are some of the arguments in favor of charter schools, and what do research studies tell us about them?
