"So many myths stand in the way of expanding educational freedom to all Americans: choice drains money from public schools; choice segregates; choice undermines democracy; and so on. In School Choice Myths, education experts Corey A. DeAngelis and Neal P. McCluskey bring clear logic and overwhelming evidence to bear against all the major anti school-choice myths, giving readers what they need to see though them and understand how even well-intentioned people can be deceived. This book is a one-stop guide to everything from the latest research on the effects of school choice on civic engagement to Supreme Court precedent. It is a must-have for any combatant in the school choice wars, or anyone who just wants the best education for their children"--Provided by publisher. |
