Dear 5,
You bring up a good point. The market will respond for schools who display an excellence in teaching the children who may be a little more challenging to educate.
If the parents of these "special children" are awarded more vouchers as a result in exhange for more funding, the market will respond by schools competing for additional funding in taking on the difficult children.
Markets work. You and your liberal friends have taken the competition and the expectations we have for children out of our schools and have therefore doomed them to mediocrity.
It is time to try another way.
