[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds to me like some of you are trying to compare your memories of big suburban public schools with huge budgets to small urban charters that get far less to spend per student.[/quote] I went to a small high school in a struggling little New England mill town. We had a modest pool and stage with orchestra pit, a champion marching band, at least a dozen varsity sports (many so strong that our teams were often invited to play private prep schools), and remarkably good science labs and computer labs. We also had regular town meetings attended by many parents. There was nowhere to hide from waste, fraud and mismanagement, so there wasn't much. [/quote]
