Today, DCPS continued to support our partnership with @RiverValleyAA Hospital by attending the Grand Opening of the newly created BIRCH Program. As a public school district, we are proud to continue to provide instruction for students in this program and those at RVBH.

Don't get distracted. The phrase "...outside the system of common schools" says it all.
Amendment 2 is the Voucher Amendment and vouchers would devastate our public schools.
Vote NO. #VoteNOon2
Avg of 75% go to families whose students never stepped foot in a public school. Real simple, they use all of the budget established by the state, then politicians increase the budget to make people happy creating a run-a-way cost that’s breaking state budgets.

This is entirely by design.
~A decade ago a series of horrific voucher outcomes began appearing as voucher schemes grew.

Periodic reminder that when Koch groups like Ginny’s push vouchers as a solution to COVID learning loss, vouchers have actually caused up to 2x the academic harm as the pandemic itself.

Many school board members and public education advocates in rural areas of the state are concerned that passage of Amendment 2 could have devastating consequences for their local public schools & the students they serve. #VoteNoOn2 #PublicFundsForPublicSchools #VoteNOonAmendment2

Instead of sending taxpayer money to private schools, we should focus on public schools -- where 90% of children attend -- and not take money away from them.
