[quote=Anonymous]why is so much of this thread taken up by a debate on moving to a far-away state?? We all live here. We are looking for solutions to the problem HERE. Sure, moving out of the area is always a possible solution for any local problem but that shouldn't have to be the only option. What is exceedingly frustrating is that there are so MANY families facing the same struggle but the schools in less afluent areas have not found a good way to balance meeting the needs of poor kids while not turning off the middle class kids. So the schools go further downhill while middle class families have to move into a smaller and smaller pocket of "good" areas or swallow private school costs. I don't want to move or do private - I want to be able to send the kids to the local school and honestly - as a suburb dweller who pays a fair amt in taxes towards those schools - i really don't see this expectation as wildly unreasonable.[/quote]
