Even as the Legislature debates a proposal that could expand access to a scholarship program for private school vouchers, a decline in attendance at nonstate schools and the resulting increase in attendance at public schools is putting more pressure on a budget spread thin by lagging tax revenues, according to The Florida Times-Union.

The voucher program will face a shortfall of as much as $3 billion. Opponents are more likely to speak about the proposal's potential to drain dollars from public education, which will really hurt in the long run.

If you have any suggestions or thoughts on this let us know. We are interested in making sure any students who are getting overlooked in overcrowded public school settings have opportunities for a quality education at private schools, especially at The Broach Schools.
