These schools don't need more $, they need to spend their money better. Bigger gyms, new fieldhouses, bigger salaries for teachers and falculty don't equal a better education. Unfortunately no one has the power to say the system is fucked up, the teachers are over-paid, and what you are doing right now isn't working. And yes, parents play a big role -- something no amount of money can fix.
Teachers are overpaid? How much does the average K-12 teacher bring in?

I could be wrong, but from what I understand teachers down there barely make enough to keep gas in the car and food on the table.

Administration, on the other hand...
