Exposing Public School Failures: How Politicians' Double Standards Hurt Families & The Promise of School Choice

On this episode of the podcast, host Amanda Head and Senior Fellow for the American Federation for Children, Corey DeAngelis dive into the disparities that currently exist within the public education aparatus. They highlight the deterioration of public school systems across America and discuss the nonsensical trend of increasing public school budgets despite their student’s declining performance and their ongoing failures to hit standard metrics.Additionally, the conversation includes a critique of politicians like California Governor Gavin Newsom and President Joe Biden, who advocate for school choice for their own children while denying it to other families. Head and DeAngelis explore the potential of expanding private schooling while simultaneously pushing for school choice and educational savings accounts which would give parents more control over their children's education. DeAngelis emphasizes the importance of addressing misconceptions about school choice and highlighting the success of homeschooling during the COVID-19 era.If you like what you heard you can buy Dr. Corey A.
