Parents, educators express concerns over Gov. Bill Lee’s proposed school voucher expansion
“As an educator of 39 years, I am glad to hear people say that public schools are not failures. What is failing public schools is the lack of financing,” said Dewayne Emert during a virtual town hall.
The organization Tennessee for All, along with other advocacy groups across the state, held a virtual town hall to voice their concerns going into the new year. The majority of their concerns centered on what the governor’s School Voucher Program would mean if passed.
