School Vouchers—The Assault on Public Schools

On December 11, Jews for a Secular Democracy hosted an insightful webinar examining the impact of school vouchers on public education and their implications for the First Amendment’s separation of church and state. 

Together with moderator Paul Golin, Executive Director of the Society for Humanistic Judaism, our panelists explored:

• How school vouchers may infringe upon First Amendment protections concerning the separation of church and state; 
• The damage of voucher programs to the integrity and funding of public education systems;
• The potential impact of the 2024 election on school voucher programs; and, 
• The broader societal and legal implications of diverting public funds to private and religious schools.
