On the heels of the illegal Newton teachers strike canceling 11 days of school, a debate has continued in the Commonwealth. Should public school teachers be allowed to strike? While both sides have aired the rationales for and against, what’s missing is a compromise to allow both teachers and families the power they seek. If public school teachers are to get the right to strike, families should get publicly funded educational choices in the form of education savings accounts (ESAs).
Thank you for writing this piece. It might be the first time I've seen the terms "Massachusetts" and "ESA" in the same article :)
Haha, so true! Trying to make it an actual thing (even if it's an uphill climb to say the least)!
