Why should parents have to pay for average education when they can send them to safe schools in safer neighborhoods for free, just by moving several miles?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Having lived and worked in the Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia I **testify** that “moving a few miles” is **impossible** for many, many families.

Also....Do you see the irony of your statement? The “choice” government gives parents is the **drastic** action of selling a home or breaking up an apartment and **moving**? Wow! Some “choice”! ( eye roll)

Again you are still ignoring the main point. I will put it in bold Italic so you don't miss it this time. These charter schools only perform at an average level in comparison with other community schools, why pay to send them there?

This is the biggest load of manure I have seen in a long time.

If you can afford to send your child to a chareter school you can afford to move to a better district.

If you can afford to pay the tuition of Homeschooling, you can find a way to move to a safer school district.

If you want something bad enough, you will find a way to do it.

You spend to much time saying why something won't work instead of how to fix it and make it work right.
