Meanwhile, he passed a bill to strip schools of funding by giving new vouchers to parents for their kids 'education', including homeschool. The money can be spent on a number of things outside school... one if which is Florida theme park admission!
Wait, how does this work? I've got 3 kids in a semi private school. I say that because it's technically a public school, but it's through a lottery system and admission is hard to get. One of the best schools in the northeast Florida. Am I eligible for that voucher as well?
Your kids' school is a "public charter school," not a "semi private school."
The purpose of those vouchers is to undermine schools like the one your kids are attending.
I don't think so. It's if you're not in a publicly funded school. It's meant to offset the cost of whatever you are doing to educate your kid if it's not a public school. But knowing desantis, the goal is more likely to refund public schools.
Weirdly, I think it's like 10 or 12k, and you are eligible if you homeschool through flvs, but then you have to pay for flvs. But it's only around 4k a year. Kind of makes sense, because you're supposed to have access as a flvs student to all the extracurriculars and clubs and things at any local public school, but in practice the schools almost uniformly refuse. So you can use the balance to pay for classes and clubs and educational materials.
