Reconsider Proposed Bills to Strengthen Public Education System
To: Gov. Parson
From: A constituent in Hannibal, MO
April 22
The proposed expansion of tax-credit scholarships for private schools and increased access to the MOScholars program raises concerns. The redirection of public funds to private institutions could potentially undermine the public school system, which relies heavily on these resources. It is crucial to consider the potential negative impacts on public schools, which serve a diverse range of students. Instead of diverting funds, it would be more beneficial to invest in improving the quality of public education. Therefore, it is requested to reconsider the proposed bills and focus on strengthening the public school system. This approach would ensure that all students, regardless of their socio-economic background, have access to quality education.
