Public schools are monopoly - DNews Letter to the editor

I found this is Saturdays Dnews...

I am generally happy with the public eduction system. It has generally served my family well. However, the problem is when a parent wants or needs special considerations for their child, parents and the child generally lose this battle. Public schools are a monopoly. I pay for public education with my taxes, and I have no freedom of choice about who teaches my children, what they are taught, where they are taught or how they are taught. School vouchers give many parents a powerful tool for the education of their children. Public education is not about the teachers, it is about the children. Vouchers will provide parents a much needed tool to take control of their children's education.
