provides Vouchers fuil,privotizolion solutio The public schoolsysten is in a state of distress. It is unfair and,for the nost part, grossly rmsuccessfi. Oneproposedsolution- the public schoolvoucherslstem - has receivedopposi tion, but its flaws needto be recognized.

Theoretically,the public schoolvouchersystem, which adilressespublic K-12 institutions, allows students and parents to choosebetter schools. Unfortunately, it has only created more problems.The real solution is corporatefur:ded institutions side by side with public ones.

The reasonthe school systernneedsclrastic cha:rges is tlut schools are unequally funded. In Colorado,schools such as Cherry Creekald ArapahoeHigh Schoolreceivesone of tle nation's highest funding levels. 0n ttre opposite end of the spectrum,tlere are many urtan schools tJtat cannot fiscally support ttremselves.

5qnq innsr-cityschoolsdo not assignhonework becausethey camot afford to give every studenta textbook.Thereare schoolsthat help finance trips anrl install projector systems in every classroomonly a few miles away from schoolswith metal detectorsand broken desks.

This is unaccepta.ble.

Coloradois known for beingthe first to pass progressivelaws, but more can be done. We needto stepto the plate - right now.

The public voucherprogram is not the answer.This systemis designedto give students a choice.They can chooseto get a bettdr education ard to have books. The problemis that private schoolscreatedby tlLis programarejust as underfundedas public schools. Private teachers by and large are less qualified tlan public educators,a-ndefforts to bdng accountability to tlis systemare weak at best. But it is a step in the right direction.

So if the voucher sSmtemand the public schoolsysteir are flawed,ttre answeris simple: corporate-finded high schools and colleges.

We need to create a system in which, tlrough tax breaks,corporationsare encouragedto create technical institutions. American companies spendbillions of clollarserlucatingpeoplein foreign countrieseveryyear.Now it's time to bring tle buck back to the States.We needto encourage large corporationsto createprivate institutions tlat fulfill basic educationalreouirements ard teach studentsskills.

ttreserequirementsfor the first two yean would be determinedand maintainedby the Colorado Departnent of Education.CSAPtesting would not be allorved.

Instead, each institution would be given statewide exams created by tle deparhnent for eachclass.Uponcompletionof the first two years at the institution - potentially gearedtoward a specificfie1d- the student would begin taining in his or her job of choice.
