“The time has arrived for everyone to pull their children out of the Government schools.”

Unfortunately even if you pull your children out, you still have to pay school taxes. In fact the teacher’s union will probably like that there are fewer kids that have to be dealt with. If only there was a way to hit them in the pocketbook without moving out of state.

From what I’ve read the teacher’s union would NOT like having less kids to teach since they lose government money that way.

The schools are collapsing slowly right now already. Take 20% of the children out tomorrow and the whole rotting edifice will implode. If you think that the system is reformable - and I don’t - the only realistic prospect for reform is to create such a crisis that the delegitimazation of the government school establishment is completed.

In any event, no child ought to remain government schools. The kindest thing that parents who can remove their children can do for those left behind is to get their own children out now. Otherwise, there is no hope at all for the children whose parents don’t care or who have some genuine impediment to removing them.
