Oppose Tax Credits and Vouchers for Private Schools

The Blue Valley School District opposes public funding of private schools, including tax credits for tuition payments to private schools, which do not comply with the same standards and requirements of public school districts.

This priority matters because this stance is rooted in the commitment to uphold consistent standards and requirements across all educational institutions. Private schools are not held to the same accountability and standards as public schools. Diverting public funds to private schools reduces resources available for public school students. This could lead to larger class sizes, reduced programs and less support for students in Blue Valley, threatening the high-quality education families expect.
