David Brennan's book, The Cleveland Voucher Case
“A fascinating story of the origins of the Cleveland voucher
program, and how it came to be a Supreme Court case celébre,
told by the prime mover in the episode, David Brennan, a highly
successful entrepreneur. He chaired the commission that first
proposed a voucher program, and , when there were not
enough private school places for the first set of voucher
recipients, organized on short notice two first-rate private
schools to accommodate them. A real hero in the movement
for greater parental choice.” |

“David Brennan has been a pioneer in the effort to ensure that
all parents, regardless of race or income, have the freedom to choose
the best education possible for their children. The Cleveland Voucher
Case is a comprehensive chronicle of the events that set the stage
for what could be the most significant U.S. Supreme Court case for
disadvantaged students since the Brown v. Board of Education decision
in 1954.” |
Congressman John Boehner
Chairman, House Committee on Education & the Workforce

“I thank God for Dave Brennan because he has passion to stand
up and push something that he believes in; and those are the people
who really make the difference today in this nation.” |
Senator George Voinovich |
“The struggle for school choice is the great civil rights struggle of the coming decades. David Brennan is a leader in that struggle.” |

“There are few reforms, possibly none, which matter as much as empowering parents and teachers.... In this readable book, David Brennan tells how this breakthrough was achieved in Cleveland, and thus, how it can be achieved elsewhere. As the prime mover in one of two major voucher programs in the United States, he speaks with a unique combination of economic, practical, and political experience on the issue of education reform. This book is not only a good story; it is vital reading for anyone interested in the future direction of K-12 education in America.” |
