Editorial: From recall candidates, no fresh ideas on California schools (via latimesopinion)
Considering that schools are among the biggest swords on which Gov. Gavin Newsom could fall come Sept. 14, you would expect the top candidates vying for the job to have robust plans for how they would improve education.
Some engage in specious claims that the dropout rate is at its highest in decades and that Newsom is angling to require that students be indoctrinated in critical race theory in schools . But the most recent and highest-quality studies make it clear that charter schools aren’t a panacea. One suchfound that the best-run charter organizations produce significantly better results for low-income students, while for others the differences are slight and in some cases abysmally worse.
Cox’s voucher idea is downright regressive. Rich families can add their own money to the $14,000 to afford schools with all the bells and whistles. They also are better able to ferry their kids to and from their top choices. Low-income kids lack such options. In addition, the state’s funding formula now gives significantly more money per student to low-income schools such as those in the Los Angeles Unified School District, so those families would be materially harmed by Cox’s proposal.
