School choice for Kentucky students debated at panel discussion ahead of 2024 legislative session

When Kentucky lawmakers meet next month for the 2024 Regular Session of the General Assembly, school vouchers are expected to be brought up. Kentucky Youth Advocates hosted a panel discussion with varying opinions on what vouchers would mean for the state and its students. Vouchers would allow qualifying families to receive a credit to attend alternative schools, like private schools, but opponents say it would take away from public school funding.
