3 Simple Points:

1.  Lower Taxes

2.  Decrease "Big Government" county, state and federal involvement in education

3.  Work to provide free market solutions to education

Libertarian Party of Texas platform on Education:

I.2. EDUCATION.
I.2.a. Education.
Libertarians support removing the barriers to choice and competition in education, allowing
parents more flexibility in deciding where and how to educate their children. We would further seek to
restore control over public schools (schooling) exclusively to the state level where it belongs, with an
emphasis on local education boards.
Libertarians would seek to work on a nonpartisan education funding policy that would seek to
provide the best and fairest use of our limited financial resources and eliminate waste and bureaucracy
at state and local levels.
I.2.b. No Child Left Behind Act.
Libertarians would seek to repeal the 'No Child Left Behind Act' and/or repeal all federal
mandates on public education that are unfunded. Libertarians would reinvest the 'NCLB' funds, that are
currently used for incentive bonuses and the bureaucracy created to manage and enforce the program,
into the 'under funded' public education system. All excess taxes collected should be returned to the
people.
