either by the student's family/support system
Or
By having all of the religious entities relinquish their current tax exempt status across all taxing jurisdictions...

Local State Federal
Property (Real & personal)
Income
Etc

I doubt that they would be very excited about being subject to the rules of the various tax programs...

Especially in a system whereby their tax dollars were used for public school children...

And at the expense of the educational institutions which are actually providing services to the families forced to pay taxes....

Of course...
these schools could always embrace their role as charitable servants and offer tuition-free education for all who desire to attend......
