HAMILTON â The Hamilton Community Schools board Monday approved a joint resolution with the Hamilton teachers association against proposed legislation expanding vouchers and creating Education Savings Accounts.
Superintendent Anthony Cassel said the proposed legislation allows parents to opt out of public schools by providing a taxpayer-funded debit card valued at $5,000 to $7,000 that can be spent on private schools, home schooling, tutoring or any number of private education products and services.
The proposed legislation also would expand the annual income limit for families eligible to use vouchers, Cassel noted.
âTheyâre expanding benefits for the upper class,â Cassel said.
âThe original intent of vouchers and school choice .. often had to do with the bigger cities, giving the students choices that were in failing schools a viable option. Theyâre now looking at expanding the annual income limit for a household of five from $85,000 to $170,000.
