Public school is just that: PUBLIC. You get what you get and everyone is lumped in together.
I like the notion here of making every school a "choice" school. It's not going to come from more money or diverting money. It's going to come from collective attitudes and efforts of people working for strong community schools. When it happens here, it's going to be wonderful. I plan to start with my own neighborhood school next year.
I absolutely would have no problem with that around here either. It would do public schools a world of good to be in a competitive market.
Good for you-
