No it would allow those parents in your community to pick what school they want their kids to go to. If your schools are doing such a great job like you claim then nobody would change right? Why not give folks the option though? I know it's against all liberal logic letting folks have a choice. Your just used to the old do what your told and eat it.
And are the parents going to be responsible for transporting their child. That is one of the problems because they expect the schools to do it. But the schools don't have the money to pick up 1 child in a neighbor and take them to a school outside of their district. But hey if parents can get them there then I'm all for it. But parents don't want to do that.
So it is ok for a women to use tax dollars to abort her baby but not teach them creationism?
It is illegal to use federal funds to pay for abortions. Any parent can teach their kid that humans and dinosaurs coexisted and they can even send their kid to a school that teaches the same, but to publicly fund such teachings is doing a disservice to the kid and science is pretty important.

Voucher are used to go to private/charter schools, not public schools outside of the district.

Yes, I know that. I was asking how these kids would get their since public schools buses transport kids to their schools in their district. And you would be able to use a voucher to go to school in another district. So how are they kids going to get there?
As long as the private schools are required to meet or exceed public school education requirements there isn't really a problem but there is a problem when they want to use public funds to subsidize falsehoods especially religious falsehoods like claiming the Earth is only 6000 years old, if they are anti-science and exclude modern biology (like evolution), or if they engage in religious indoctrination. If they don't fill the same standards line for line for each subject then no public money should ever be given to them.
I sure don't want my tax dollars going to subsidize someone else's religious delusions.

It is up to parents to find a way to get their kids to school.
School vouchers aren't a bad thing; they are a good thing.
We have a pack of dinosaurs, called 'teacher's unions', that want the educational system to continue to fail. That's why they are against vouchers.
