Fed. Society – How to Fix Education: School Choice vs. Public Schools
FREE LUNCH PROVIDED American children continue to lag behind their international peers in the areas of reading, math, and science. Recently, Akron mother Kelley Williams-Bolar was convicted of a felony for falsifying records in order to enroll her kids in Copley-Fairlawn schools instead of Akron Public Schools. While Williams-Bolar’s motives may be questioned, one truth remains – Ohio’s Education system is failing. Come join the Federalist Society for an exciting debate on how to fix the Education Crisis. Clark Neily of the Foundation for Educational Choice (http://www.edchoice.org/Foundation-Services/Speakers/Clark-Neily.aspx) will take on the Hon. Stephen Dyer, former Ohio state representative and Akron Law Alum (http://ballotpedia.org/wiki/index.php/Steve_Dyer). Neily and Dyer will debate on this question: “To improve the education system in America and specifically, in Ohio, is the traditional model of state funded public schools the answer, or should we look to a system of school choice, such as vouchers, where the government directly funds parents and students, who then decide which school to attend?” All are Welcome. FREE LUNCH THURSDAY APRIL 7TH in 12:15 in ROOM 151
