And if you need to travel too far - I'm sorry, but I don't think that having to transport a 6 year old an hour one way every morning and every night contributes to his learning or his general health, no matter how damn good the school is when he gets there.
What I am trying to say is if you're in NYC or Chicago and there's zillions of schools one on top of the other it can maybe be beneficial - but other than that, it sucks.

I travelled an hour and a half each way to high school.
By the way vouchers only would help the wealthy and educated - the kind of folk who know their children will have more opportunities if they study and stay involved with their children.
