[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because parents keep sending these schools money anyway.[/quote] This is public school. [/quote] Parents don't have any easy options. Complain and make a fuss and the school is not going to look favorably on your kid. Going private and moving are your only options, and they suck. In a school choice world, clued-in parents are more likely to start leaving for privates or charters or something that is not district run, and schools will either adapt to bring them back, or at least not damage the same number of children. But school choice is an issue that now belongs to, ew, those people. So it's better to just reteach your kids after school and complain anonymously, in the hope that the zeitgeist shifts.[/quote]
