The basic purpose of the plan iS to try to improve the education of children from poor families by making it possible for their parents to choose the schools their youngsters will attend.

Those who see the voucher plan as a harebrained experiment complain that it waste scarce money that could be used to improve public schools. And there are specialized objections. Some minority groups are concerned about the use of vouchers to support segregated schools. Persons concerned about church-state separation object to any public funds being used to support parochial schools.

Planners of the experiment say safeguards against both racism and unconstitutional, into aid the to churches program. The strongest support for the voucher experiment has come from within the OE0, but it does have advocates among some professional educational. theorists.
