We can’t let the legislature tear our public schools down.

“Innovation” is a strange way of describing schools that ban Buddhists and prohibit girls from wearing pants to football games. We should not be giving these institutions public dollars.

I am greatly amused by how much investment is put into test security of state assessments for which students have no reason to take seriously.

@NCHouseSpeaker You and this legislature is the worst. You abuse your “authority” to run over the will of a significant portion of those who live here. Undemocratic and despicable.

[J. Sigmon @JeniSigmon]

@NCHouseSpeaker Not the will of the people. Only the will of your people.

NC’s top voucher recipient this year is Grace Christian in Sanford (almost $2.5m).

Grace Christian’s top educational objective isn’t academic, it’s “To lead the student to receive Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.”

They should not be receiving public funds. #nced #ncga

[Josh Gad @joshgad]

Love this answer.

[Justin Parmenter @JustinParmenter]

Liberty Christian School in Durham, NC got almost a million $ in voucher funding this year.  

Liberty's primary educational objective is "to bring each student to a saving knowledge and relationship with Jesus Christ."  

They should not be getting taxpayer funding.  #nced #ncga

"Choose Your School, Choose Your Future" only works if the school being chosen is required to accept the student choosing that school. With private schools it doesn't work that way. With public schools it does.

@tracyrenee70 Honestly? I am staying because I am a little more than 6 years from 30 years of service. I won’t be staying in the classroom one second longer.

[Justin Parmenter @JustinParmenter]

High Point Christian Academy in NC got nearly a million $ in voucher funding this year.  

HPCA believes the purpose of education is "to know God," and students who "are not in harmony with the spirit of the institution" face expulsion.

They should not get public $. #nced #ncga

Call me old-fashioned, but you should be able to ring a doorbell, get in the wrong car in a parking lot, or drive down the wrong driveway without getting shot at, injured or killed.
