    whatever happened to a parents choice over what their kid is taught? oh right they were being hypocritical once again.

      DeSantis also signed a huge voucher expansion, so parents can choose to take their kids somewhere else if they don’t like what’s taught at their local school. Here’s more info about school choice in Florida.

      I don’t live there, so I can’t give any practical experience with it, but I do send my kid to a tax-funded charter school because our local school sucked at the time (has since improved, probably because so many in my area opted out of the local school and they changed the leadership).

      If I lived in Florida, I would strongly consider moving my kids to a different school if I disagreed with the curriculum. But I’d need to inspect the curriculum first.
