“Students making a choice to leave their resident districts are usually more economically advantaged than their peers. Which, in turn, leaves the economically disadvantaged students behind … being educated in a school with less resources. And many of these students are also children of color. This results in more segregated schools, sharper contrasts between the ‘haves and the have nots,’ less diversity and inclusion in schools, fragmented communities where neighborhood children attend different school systems, and where communities have lost their local school identity…without equity, the voucher debate is a rigged game.”
