The Catholic Education Foundation
The Separation of School and State:
Why do so many Americans-liberal and conservative-support a compulsory system of government-run education? What role should the State play in educating America's children? Are government schools compatible with a free society? Is it possible to have a free-market in education?
Dr. Thompson's lecture will examine the destructive effects of "public" education in America. He will critique the principal assumptions behind government schooling (e.g., that children have a "right" to an education and that government schools are for the "public good") and will call for the abolition of all government schools. Thompson will present a principled argument for a free-market in education that begins with the rights and responsibilities of parents to provide for the education of their own children.
