October 25, 2024

Hello WCPS Families,

Several faculty and staff members, as well as school and district leaders have received questions related to Amendment 2 and its potential impact on public education. From the beginning, we have prioritized informing our greater community with clarity and accuracy related to the impact in other states that have passed similar legislation. As many of you may already know, there is nothing in state law prohibiting a public school employee from educating friends and community members on the facts related to the proposed amendment. 

Amendment 2, better known as the Voucher Amendment, has significant implications on future funding for public school education across the Commonwealth. This amendment removes 7 sections of our state Constitution and it provides legislators with complete autonomy to fund schools however they wish to do so. There are zero guardrails in the Amendment 2 language and legislators will be permitted to use public funds to pay for private school tuition, homeschools, charter schools, etc. Based upon the outcomes of states who have gone before us, there has been an explosion in the overall education budget with public schools actually receiving less funding. Undoubtedly, the passage of Amendment 2 will have significant implications on public school education in Bowling Green/Warren County and across the entire Commonwealth. Ultimately, understanding the implications of Amendment 2 is critical as it shapes the landscape of public school education and what our future students will experience and the resources available to them. 

As you educate yourself about the Amendment 2 ballot decision, remember that 90% of Kentucky’s children are educated in public schools, 53% of the private schools in the Commonwealth are located in only three counties (Fayette, Jefferson & Kenton) and 63% of Kentucky’s counties have no private school options at all. Should Amendment 2 pass, Warren County Public Schools (WCPS) stands to lose more than 150 educator positions at a time when public education in Kentucky is facing historic faculty and staff workforce shortages. In addition, it is predicted that with the passage of Amendment 2, WCPS could lose over $27 million in revenue that should be used to support our district and our remarkable  18,000+ students. 

I encourage everyone to learn the facts of Amendment 2 before Election Day. You can learn more at the following links: protectourschoolsky.com and kypolicy.org.

Respectfully,

Rob Clayton

Superintendent
