[quote=Anonymous]Because they could start working their tails off today, and even if all goes very smoothly the changes still probably won't come about quickly enough to benefit their children. For high-SES families it is much easier to play the lottery or, if need be, move, than to flip around a school. And it takes much more than a bunch of high SES attending the school to change it. The students and families don't hire and fire teachers. It takes an administration dedicated to making these hard choices. If your child has a bum teacher it doesn't matter much if his classmates are high or low SES.[/quote]
