No I did not say simply change the location. You said that.

I said get them out of the schools. The parents will band together and curriculum is available.

Screw standards.

There really are no standards so anything the parents and community do will be better than what these government facilities provide..

I have spent the last 40 years around parents who have opted to leave.

Parents who can’t or won’t will have their kids trapped in the ever failing system

You seem trapped in a limited perspective.

You are trapped in an intellectual vacuum.

How about posting some evidence that you know how to organize and orchestrate a useful curriculum. Prove you know a full spectrum of what youngsters need to know, and how to deliver that knowledge. Give some indication that you can really prevent the "creeping crud" from re-infesting your new school. Prove to the other readers of this thread that you really can pull off your renaissance. It is easy to tear something down, but not so easy to replace it just because of over-simplified views.

Until you understand that the parents were the ones who caused degradation of the schools you won't be able to supply a solution.

Wow! So, will any hillbilly be allowed to set the standards for language and literature? Choose which history lessons are useful? Designate the level of mathematics needed in all walks of life? Do I have to put up with choices of other parents who see no reason to learn chemistry or physics?

You really haven't taken note of what I am trying to tell you: It is mostly the parents that CAUSED the degradation of the schools. That MUST be recognized and taken into account. Otherwise, what spoiled the public schools will also spoil these new endeavors.

You and I hold better views of child rearing and education than the vast majority of parents. A collective of two well-educated and properly functioning parents combined with hundreds of dip-shits will not produce a decent education.
