Have questions? The Courier Journal has answers

A controversial amendment on Kentucky’s ballot asks voters to decide whether or not to alter the state’s constitution to allow public funds to go to education outside the current public school system.

Proponents of Amendment 2 say it will create choice for families, while opponents say it will have a devastating financial impact on public schools.

But the potential impacts of such a change remain largely unknown, as legislators have not indicated what type of “school choice” program they plan to pursue, should the amendment pass — leaving some voters with questions about what the amendment does and what it means for the state.

The Courier Journal recently hosted a forum with panelists who are both for and against the amendment, and more than 90 community members showed up with questions about how this could affect Kentucky families and schools.
