Private Schools in Three States Skip Background Checks and Credentials
Original: No Background Checks, No Proof of Education: ProPublica and Private Schools
A ProPublica investigation reports that private schools participating in school voucher-style programs in Arkansas, West Virginia, and North Carolina face few oversight requirements, with no background checks for staff and no proof of teachers' education. The findings have drawn attention on Hacker News, where readers are debating lax regulation of publicly funded private education and the risks it poses to children.
Why now: The new ProPublica investigation into weak oversight of private schools in school choice programs is fresh and touches a contentious policy debate.
