Stitt and Walters claim that vouchers would not hurt our rural schools and communities. Here is how vouchers hurt ALL school districts that rely on the funding formula to operate. 1/3
Costs of vouchers are subtracted from the total state allocation for K-12 schools before the remainder is distributed to Public Schools across the state.That’s what happens with the Lindsey Nicole Henry vouchers & what would’ve happened if SB1647 had passed last session. 2/3
