How widespread are school voucher programs in the US?
I know there was a recent stink in D.C. about it. As I understand it, they did a 5 year trial of a voucher system and talks to renew it apparently broke down. People who have vouchers can continue to get them until they complete school but no new students are getting them, basically resulting in the end of the voucher program by attrition.
I don't think Maryland has such a program. Dustie? Does Maryland offer any sort of voucher system?
