[quote=Anonymous]Yep. It's why we moved out of CA. Had to think of my kids' schooling and didn't want to do private because I was afraid that if one of us couldn't work due to health or was laid off, then kids would be stuck in a terrible school. I lived through the dotcom crash there, and it made me realize that the high tech bubble can't sustain itself long term. As a PP noted, it was prop 13 that killed it. I grew up in CA, and was in grade school prior to prop 13. Once that passed, in hindsight I can see a difference in education quality. Gone were the "extras" and class sizes increased. It's worse now. CA has lots of public colleges, but even the CalState Univs (the tier below UCs) are now getting harder to get into. It's crazy.[/quote]
