"We're already to do it at Mt Zion." Other black churches have also made major commitments to schools they support. Recently, the Christian Faith Academy of Creedmoor completed a $4 mil lion building project to expand mm "This bill would give working income families a wider choice of where their children can go to school" ? Vernon Robinson classrooms and add a gym and cafeteria. "If the public schools are so great then why are they afraid of a little competition?" Fozard asked. "We want to make sure our children have the same opportunities that we had.~ Under Linnev's bill, the tuition grants would equal about two-thirds of the amount the state currently spends to educate a child, or about $1,900.
