Board Floats Voucher Plan

Education reform is proving to be a hot topic as of late. Originating in a wealthy suburb of Denver, Colorado, a new, educational outlook is being considered. Policy proposals entailing the use of public funds, functioning as vouchers, to be allocated to parents in order to send their children to private and almost exclusively, faith-based institutions are up for debate in Douglas County. These proposals include provisions that would allow students to not only enroll full-time in a private school but also study privately with distinguished professors and professionals within the community. It seems this coupling of public and private resources is enabling students to receive a customized education, as opposed to merely managing them in a traditional system.
