There are good public school systems out there though. Not all of them suffer from the major problems often associated with public schools...but they all suffer from the minor problems that public schools can't avoid. (like dumb kids, bad kids and "special" kids)
Agreed. I am constantly surprised by the excellent quality of the schools in my locale, despite the rampant poverty and high number of Native Americans living within or transferring into the district.
Where you send your children to school is your choice... as long as they receive a quality education... but I can easily say that I'd be proud to send my children to my local public schools.
