This is what supporters of charter schools and vouchers don't tell you: because those schools aren't required to admit physically or learning disabled students, or ESL students, their "improved test scores" and whatnot are completely juiced—and it defunds the schools where disabled kids DO go.
WATCH: “Instead of giving money to private schools that don’t take kids like me, please help public schools get better and fund them.”

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes
Florida Republicans passed a law to "scare" undocumented immigrants.
Now that the law is scaring undocumented immigrants in the state into fleeing the state.
That means most of the states farmworkers could leave the state as a result.

To keep immigrants from fleeing, Florida GOP focus on immigration law loopholes
Republican lawmakers in Florida are scrambling to convince established immigrant workers who already have jobs to stay, while making it inhospitable for newly arrived migrants.
