Episode Details

Texas just launched its biggest private school voucher program ever, pouring in a billion dollars—with over 85,000 families signing up in the first year alone. But here’s the twist: most participants are white and low-income, not the disabled kids or students from failing schools the program was meant to help. Critics say it’s a windfall for private schools in big cities while public schools shutter. And while pre-K families are actually the largest group enrolled, many others are still on a waitlist as schools scramble to confirm spots. This is far from settled—and it’s already sparking national debate.
