In IA each public school gets the same amount of money per child from the state, supposedly. So a voucher would not have a monetary skew if a child were to go to a private school. The biggest problem is in some of the rural areas of the state the only private school option is 1 religious-based school (either Catholic or Protestant). If you have 2 or 3 failing school districts near each other- you're screwed if you dont want your kid to be taught by a curriculum strongly influenced and infused with X religion.
