Vouchers

Trevor,

Did you see the article in the Washington Times about the kids who did better on standard test who received vouchers then the kids that did not?

I haven't run across that article yet, but I know that in virtually every case where students are selected to participate in voucher studies, they inevitably do better than the control groups "left behind" in the public school.

This, of course, stands to reason in my mind, and it would be comical to see how opposed the teachers unions and most public schools are to adopting school choice measures if it weren't so harmful.
