People always have the right to send their children to private or parochial schools if that’s what they want to do, although the state is not required to pay for that schooling, the FAMILY pays their child’s tuition!

The voucher , and later 'charter schools', ideas were schemes developed by the far-right after they had hijacked the private religious schools' archipelago and turned it into cloning factories for their extremist ideology. It was a design intended to divert educational funds to their own agenda and bleed the public school systems of badly needed money. It was an effective tactic and still is. www.poems4change.org/essays/education-end-of-evolution.pdf
Ironically, now that the capture and dismantling of public education by the Destructionists appears to be succeeding it may be Progressives and the more enlightened who will need to turn to 'home schooling' and their handful of private schools (Montessori, et al) to protect the minds of their children. We ignored what the Destructionists were doing, and never bothered to really build a private liberal education system.
Could be, we have some knucklehead in WI that’s running for state Superintendent of schools… doesn’t have a WI Teaching License, and wants to change everything to charter schools. For those who want that or parochial schools that’s fine to make that choice, but taxpayers shouldn’t have to pay for that!
When I 1st went to college, I chose a state college & in the end didn’t graduate from there as I could never get the classes I needed to become a teacher- so I dropped out & got a job working …. Fast forward after getting married & having 4 kids I chose to go back to college 25 yrs. later, only this time chose a private college - graduated, became a teacher & 10 yrs later went afterschool & weekends & got my Master’s Degree!

That changed some time ago, because of court decisions eroding the separation of church and state.

That’s what school vouchers are being used for, at least here in Florida.
