Bridging the Technology Gap in School Choice - Mark J. Smith

School choice has become a major political issue in recent elections, most notably in the Year 2000 Presidential race. Central to the debate is the rebate of funds to taxpayers to fund private education for children when they are not utilizing public schools. Another consideration must certainly be the difference in opportunities and technology access for students between schools with public funding and those private non-profit schools that subsist on tuition, grants and the budgets of foundations and/or religious entities. This aim of this paper is to show some means by which a technology gap can be narrowed between public and less-affluent private schools.
