Barfooties is right...maybe private school will end up costing less!
I have no issue with paying for my daughter's thirst, but from a public school which would not be Top 5 without all parents constantly pitching in, but what about the other school districts where parents work 18 hours and can barely make ends meet in the household? Do their children go thirsty.
It's just wrong on principal. more ranting. my apology...but where will the line ever be drawn? When parents become the teachers in the classroom as well as life?
thanks for the post though!!  |
Hell, look at the business end of California. California loves to drive big business out of the state with their crazy taxes. Which ofcourse leaves less to tax and less income for the state. This state is so fucked up, it's just sad.
But here's a thought hon. Get your child into a home schooling group. Meaning, a group of moms form a group and will takes turns each week at their house. I've sat in on one of these and it surely impressive. They get all the materials from the state, plus lots of private companies send them all kinds of workboards. Then each month, the group will get together 5 other groups for testing, sports, or whatever. Most are on the CORE standard.
It's a bit different route to go, but worth some research. It certainly wasn't what i thought it would be.
