If you want to be a private school, knock yourself out. Private schools have always existed alongside public schools in America. But you can't then ALSO be publicly funded and demand special dispensation so none of the rules apply.

Imagine a restaurant could apply for special status that makes them exempt from health department rules and inspections. Simply applying for that status would be reason enough for customers to stay away!
I wish you were correct about that “can’t,” but—tragically and ironically—morality and justice has been leached out of the system by those who proclaim that their ascension to power has made anything they legislate become “right.”
So true. I guess my "can't" is an appeal to abstract logical consistency: a "private" school that gets a large percentage of its funding from the state is, imo, no longer entirely private. That money comes with public oversight!
Sectarian private schools have even historically argued against vouchers on this front: they don't want state meddling & intervention in private religious instruction either. As they should!
