“Read the California Education Code?”
No thanks. LOL
We’ll just keep “home schooling” down here.

I am “down here” too (Houston)...yes Home Schooling works but for anyone who really wants to change the bigger picture, they will have to work from this angle. I did it and I know. I changed my school district by making them comply with their own code. They wanted me to just put my child in private schooling because he was so far beyond his level. But I thought if I could change what the district offered to gifted kids that I could effect improvement for more than just my own child. I did that and now instead of pulling the kids out one day a week and busing them to an ineffective class and calling it enrichment, the district has a full time in-school program. You pay for the public schools so the option of changing them is another viable option which reaps certain benefits and has its downside too.
