Do you support the “Education Freedom Account” program, which gives students access to the per-pupil share of state school funding to spend on private school or home school expenses?
"Vouchers are bankrupting state budgets in AZ and Ohio and there is evidence in OH that private schools raise tuition as vouchers increase to limit the number of low income families who can afford to send children to private schools. In a state that is not meeting it's obligation to fund public schools and where the majority of education funding comes from property taxes, it's irresponsible to ask for additional funds for private schools.

Do you support New Hampshire’s current system of public school funding, with about two-thirds of total funding coming from local property taxes?
