NC made vouchers open to any family, then many private schools raised tuition Research by Public Schools First NC found many private schools receiving Opportunity Scholarships raised tuition by 15% or more after the state increased voucher funding.

NC made vouchers open to any family, then many private schools raised tuition.

www.wunc.org/education/20...

Report shows most NC voucher recipients already attended private school — here's why that matters A new report finds about 90% of Opportunity Scholarship recipients this school year already attended a private school before the program was expanded so even wealthy families could apply.

“The demographic data shows… that the most typical Opportunity Scholarship recipient is a white student in Wake County attending a Christian school who had never received a voucher before the income cap was lifted.”

The voucher program is an absolute scam. #publicschools #nceducation

The U.S. Department of Education is under attack! Please call all elected officials to help protect this important source of funding and legal rights for our children. We're sharing info. for our NC senators as a place to start. #nced #ncpublicschools #ncae #ncpol #supportpublicschools #nceducation

I've learned more about history and civics on TikTok than I ever did in North Carolina public school. #tiktokban #nceducation

I can’t imagine this will be good for NC education. Is there a lobby group on the opposite side to donate and volunteer with?
