South Bend? I'm not sure what the high school situation for boys is at this point.


South Bend has a high school for boys and one for girls. The boys school just re-opened two years ago, so it's small but growing.

There's a thread somewhere about a Jewish school in Florida that does not charge tuition... I think it was community supported.

Ohio as a whole has tuition subsidized by the state I think.

Check out Columbus, Ohio! We have vouchers here too. Not sure exactly what right wing MO means in terms of co-ed education, but we have a great school here. But know that it is co-ed all the way through 12th. For the most part though, the kids here are great, healthy, well rounded kids.

No, not really.
There are 2 ways to get tuition vouchers in Ohio as of this writing.
1) You need to live in a place where you would be assigned to a failing public school. You need to be residing by July 31st as well. Cincinnati has its most popular neighborhoods in such an area, but Columbus and Cleveland one has to be more cautious where they move to if they are relying on the EdChoice voucher system.

2) The second way to be eligible is via income. If you are under 200% of the poverty limit, no matter where you live, you may be eligible. This is much less of a sure thing. This past year, the deadline for application (and thereby Ohio residency) was April 30th and it's likely to continue. There was not enough funding for all the applicants. They prioritized renewals, then under 100% of the FPL, and then put the rest on a waitlist. They're clearing that waitlist up still but imagine not knowing if you would definitely qualify for a voucher when you assume you'll be getting one. And then when your income goes up, it's a sliding scale how much your voucher is worth (it's $4,650 right now for a full voucher just like the regular EdChoice system for elementary; 6K for high school) until it phases out.
