[quote=Anonymous]One part of this debate that is missing is how much parent support the "good" schools that are the subject of this are getting. You can't talk disparate treatment without acknowledging that the parents in these neighborhoods do a tremendous amount of fundraising and support the schools in other ways as well. There was a WaPo article a year or so ago, for example, that noted that the Parent's Association at Murch raised 250k and was funding several teaching positions and facility upgrades. Will these parents continue to do so if there kids are forced to go out of bounds or will they pull the plug, move to Mo Co or VA, send to private thereby dragging these schools down. [/quote]
