Vouchers are a mechanism to redirect public tax dollars from public education toprivate and parochial schools. Q Why aren't vouchers allowed in michigan?
http://www.lwv-midland.org/callForAction/allKidsFirst.html

Extractions: League of Women Voters of Michigan ALL Kids First A Coalition to Oppose the Ballot Initiative to Amend the Constitution to Allow Public Funds to be Spent for Nonpublic Education by Means of Vouchers The League of Women Voters of Michigan (LWVMI) has had a position opposing vouchers as a distribution system for state financing of education since 1969. Because of that position LWVMI was one of the founding organizations of a ballot initiative coalition 'ALL Kids First' which opposes the ballot initiative proposed in petitions now being circulated by 'Kids First! Yes!' This proposal would amend the Michigan Constitution to allow public funds to be spent for nonpublic education by means of vouchers. Volunteers are needed to inform the public on this issue. Professional training will be provided to ensure that we have the tools we need to speak out accurately and effectively.

VOUCHERS: DIFFERENT RULES FOR DIFFERENT SCHOOLS
In November, michigan voters will decide whether to allow public tax money to goto private and parochial schools in the form of what is called a voucher.
http://www.michiganprospect.org/articles_html/op_ed_vouchers_schools.html

Extractions: In November, Michigan voters will decide whether to allow public tax money to go to private and parochial schools in the form of what is called a voucher. A voucher is a coupon good for a certain number of dollars of education. Parents could submit this voucher to a private or parochial school and the school could, if it decides to enroll the student, cash it in with the state of Michigan. I have some words I’d like to use also to talk about vouchers. The words are "rules of the game." In most of life, competition is based on playing by the same rules of the game. Government agencies exist to make sure that everyone plays by the same rules of the game. No one minds competition as long as competitors are playing by the same rules.

http://www.tbaisd.k12.mi.us/get_to_know/index.asp

Extractions: Welcome The Traverse Bay Area Intermediate School District (TBAISD) is one of 57 ISDs in the state of Michigan, encompassing sixteen public school districts, three public school academies and fourteen private and parochial schools within Antrim, Benzie, Grand Traverse, Kalkaska and Leelanau counties. When ISDs were established in 1962, the name "Intermediate" School District was chosen to reflect their role as a link between local school districts and the Michigan Department of Education. As the scope and responsibility of schools grew, however, so did the role of the ISD to include providing its local districts with those programs and services which are either too expensive or too extensive to be offered individually. TBAISD's motto, "Leading Lifetime Learning", reflects their commitment to providing continually expanding educational opportunities for all learners. Mission: The mission of the Traverse Bay Area Intermediate School District is to enhance educational effectiveness. To do this we will: Employ a high-quality, enthusiastic staff
Lapeer, Michigan

http://www.leeandkristin.net/Lapeer/Lapeer.html

Extractions: Lapeer is a small city in southeastern lower Michigan, roughly forty minutes west of Lake Huron. It is located near the intersection of Interstate 69 and State Highway M-24, between Flint and Port Huron. Lapeer was settled during the 19th century, at a time when Greek Revival architecture was especially popular. The most notable local example of this style is the Lapeer County courthouse, the oldest courthouse still in use in Michigan. (It's reported that there's still a law on the books prohibiting the hitching of horses in front of the building.) Though larger than any of its neighbors, Lapeer's downtown area still has the flavor of a small, midwestern town. The stores along Nepessing Street range from neighborhood drugstores to rural hardware, art and craft supplies, furniture, computers, bookstores and ice cream shops. The west end of town has a church on nearly every block, representing a wide variety of denominations. Just a few blocks away from Nepessing, blocks and blocks of houses stretch in all directions, many dating back more than a century. By contrast, the M-24 corridor between downtown and the interstate is packed with fast food restaurants, gas stations, strip malls and supermarkets. The light industrial zone south of town houses a respectable number of manufacturing companies, warehouses, and fabrication plants.

The Michigan Department of Education, as part of its Technology Literacy Challenge Fund Grant Program, has granted Okemos, East Lansing and Ingham Intermediate school districts over half a million dollars to develop, in collaboration with MSU, programs that will furnish students and educators with cutting-edge, 21st century resources for teaching and learning. "These three grants will permit MSU faculty to strengthen ties with leading educators in area schools. Together, the partners will develop innovative curricular materials in several disciplines," said Paul Hunt, vice provost for libraries, computing and technology. "Through its Virtual University, MSU will also deliver Advanced Placement courses to Michigan high school students who may not have access to local AP programs."

http://www.wsws.org/articles/1999/apr1999/det-a06.shtml

Extractions: 6 April 1999 Following the passage last week, by the Michigan House of Representatives, of a final version of the "school reform bill" aimed at taking over the Detroit Public School system, Detroit Mayor Dennis Archer moved quickly to remove the incumbent school board. In what one newspaper columnist described metaphorically as the "night-of-the-long-knives," the mayor demanded the resignation of the entire outgoing board last Friday, within hours of Governor John Engler's signing of the reform legislation. By the following Wednesday, members of the defunct board had vacated their offices and turned in their keys to the mayor. While the new hand-picked board has not yet adopted any policies, its composition confirms that Archer, Engler and the state legislature are moving to tailor the public school system to the needs of big business. The seven-member board includes William Beckham, the president of the business-oriented New Detroit and an adviser to former US President Jimmy Carter; Frank Fountain, vice-president of DaimlerChrysler; Pam Aguirre, CEO of Mexican Industries of Michigan, one of the largest minority-owned auto parts manufacturers; Detroit Deputy Mayor Freeman Hendrix; Dr. Glenda Price, president of Marygrove College; and Marvis Coffield, director of a non-profit social service agency called Operation Get Down who also owns a small business.
Michigan, California School Voucher Initiatives Threaten Public Education

http://www.wsws.org/articles/2000/nov2000/vouc-n06.shtml

Extractions: 6 November 2000 Use this version to print On November 7 voters in California and Michigan will cast ballots on state-wide initiatives to provide parents with publicly funded school vouchers to send their children to private or parochial schools. California's Proposition 38 (the National Average School Funding Guarantee and Parental Right to Choose Quality Education Amendment) would make a $4,000 voucher available to the parents of all school-age children. The official anti-voucher coalitions are largely made up of the teachers unions and other AFL-CIO affiliates and sections of the Democratic Party. But these forces offer no serious program or strategy for addressing the crisis in public education, and the danger consequently exists that growing numbers of parents, desperate to find better conditions for their children, may be susceptible to pro-voucher arguments, if not now, then at some point in the future. These forces have sought to exploit the widespread anxiety felt by working class and middle class families over deteriorating conditions in the public school system. The voucher proponents, however, conceal the fact that the crisis in the schools is the product of decades of federal, state and local spending cuts, tax breaks to big business and attacks on teachers' and other school employees' wages and working conditions.

http://csmweb2.emcweb.com/durable/2000/07/31/p1s4.htm

Extractions: Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor LOS ANGELES Backed by deep-pocket millionaires, California and Michigan are giving new life to the controversial national debate on school choice. Two citizen campaigns now under way could drastically alter public education in their states and shape the direction and vitality of American education reform. Both campaigns deal with laws that would provide parents with state-funded vouchers to help pay tuition at private or parochial schools. Boosted by recent court rulings that say the government can use taxpayer money to support private schools, the votes could either bolster or stall the growing pro-voucher movement. "These are very important campaigns to watch not only because of the size of these states but because of the momentum they will create for other states to do likewise," says Bob Chase of the National Education Association, the nation's largest teachers union. It is fighting the initiatives.

Extractions: Thursday, April 1, 1999 DETROIT Acting on behalf of five parents, the American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan today challenged a Kent County charter school for violating the First Amendments protections of separation of church and state. Vanguard Charter School Academy sanctioned prayer in the school, allowed the distribution of religious materials during class, allowed a nearby church to use its facilities rent-free to conduct worship, conducted a mandatory staff retreat with distinct religious overtones and taught creationism as an accepted scientific theory, according to the amended complaint filed today in United States District Court. Vanguard Charter School Academy teaches children from kindergarten through seventh grade. Like all other charter schools in Michigan, Vanguard is a public school and must follow Michigans code for public school academies. It is managed by National Heritage Academy, one of the largest management companies in Michigan. The ACLU is suing on behalf of five parents of students at the school.
