I understand the argument some folks make: “Private schools have better test scores.” But we have to be honest about what that really means. Private schools are selective. They can choose who they accept. And students who attend them are more likely to come from families with greater resources, stable housing, two-parent households, tutors, reliable internet, technology, transportation, and all the support systems that make academic success easier. There is a place for private education. Families who want to pay for it should have that choice. But public dollars must be preserved for public education. Our public schools serve everyone. They serve the child with every advantage and the child carrying every burden. They serve rural communities, working families, students with disabilities, and kids who need school to be the most stable place in their lives. That means public education must be fully funded, supported, and uplifted. And it starts with paying our teachers well enough to make teaching a desirable profession again. Putting People First means investing in the schools that serve all of our children.
