[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, the disastrous township systems in places like NY and NJ far predate this obsession with school quality. The high taxes in these places are partially a function of these antiquated local government structures. And school taxes are high primarily because the schools have been built around these tiny districts that drive up costs dramatically. It's not because the parents all demand top, top schools. Even in towns where the schools suck, they still cost a fortune.[/quote] But those schools are also more responsive to the community. When the mayor and everyone on the school board sends their kids to the same schools, it makes a difference.[/quote] When school districts have essentially no diversity, people have much less problem sending their kids there.
