Just because YOUR AP is good doesn't mean the school system as a whole can afford one for all the schools.

My son's HS became a charter school because of all the crap the county was throwing them. They were voted one of the top 5 schools in the country with a 100% graduation rate and a 100% college attendance rate and the highest SAT scores in the state for public schools and even beating out some private schools. There was some serious money in the school - several CEOs from company names you'd recognize, pro ball players, etc. and at least 90% of the mothers were SAHMs. I was working for myself at home at the time and was able to do whatever they needed me to do for volunteer work. There were always about 30 parents a day at that place. And since it was still financed by the county they got a lot more leeway than private schools. For instance if a child had taken all the available courses at the HS, the county would pay for college classes as well as transportation there and back.

Try setting in motion being able to obtain charter school status. RE ads where there are charter schools in GA will start the ad with "In Suchandsuch school district!" because they are so much better than the "normal" public schools.
