    Re: “Second Chances
    Bill,
    Try reading the article! It doesn't ask you to NOT check an applicant's criminal background, just move that to later in the hiring process. Thus giving those who are making an attempt to turn their lives around a chance to show you what they've got!

    Do the voucher kids do better? Of course they do! They get to go to schools where the bar is higher. Why is the bar higher at private schools? Because they can exclude any child that is difficult; behaviorily, educationally, socially. They take the cream of the crop and then point to how much better they perform. This is a two- tiered educational system. The haves get a better education (at mostly tax payer expense) the have nots get a worse education.
