ICYMI: Kansans Believe Public Dollars
Should Be Invested in Public Schools 

*"KEY QUOTE:"*" “""Research shows that policies focused on improving schools — ensuring accountability, setting high standards, testing, providing necessary resources, and so on — lead to real progress.”" 

*Politicizing education by pushing public dollars to private groups is a dangerous game* [ [link removed] ] 
*"Julie Doll, Topeka Capital-Journal"*

* If Americans base their assessments on facts rather than fiction, public schools deserve fairly high marks. 

* Education is one of the most reliable factors — coming in right behind being born into a wealthy family — that predict a person’s economic success. And a better educated populace allows for economic growth for the larger society. 

* It is not coincidence that Americans’ prosperity has risen in concert with attendance at public grade schools, high schools and colleges. 

* The push to direct public money to private enterprises reduces accountability, sets no or low standards and reallots resources based on politics.
