Nothing wrong about PTAs funding "enrichment" at their own schools.  Distributing that across all schools would take socialism to a wholly different level. [/quote]

On the one hand, people say that there's nothing about low-poverty schools that will magically improve poor kids' education.

On the other hand, these same people say that it's fine for PTAs at low-poverty schools to fund enrichment for kids at their schools.

[b]Pick one belief, please. They can't both be true[/b].[/quote]

They can.... the first is funded from taxes that the county and the state collect from all residents, and the second is a directed contribution/donation.[/quote]

No, they can't. Either there actually is something about low-poverty schools that will magically improve poor kids' education - namely, PTA-funded enrichment - or  the PTAs at low-poverty schools to provide something that kids at low-poverty schools get but kids at high-poverty schools don't, which means that it's actually not fine for them to do so.[/quote]
