I do appreciate my parents sacrifice because I got a great education. Unfortunately Catholic schools have gotten expensive. So the enrollment is actually higher in public schools then the 60’s. I’m not sure why so many think vouchers will destroy public school. How many will use them? 10 percent? I don’t think public schools will close down for this.
