Let the kids from failing schools move to schools that are not failing so they can fail also. Makes sense

While all good private schools magically raise tuition by 6.5k due to inflation so they can keep the same level of exclusivity. New private schools will form, charging exactly $6.5k per student to take advantage of the situation, but 9/10 of them will be at or below bad public school level and run by individuals just trying to make a quick buck. School choice solves nothing and ignores the larger issues in education.

Parents that are involved, care enough about their child’s education, and have the transportation to get their kid to the better school are not those of failing kids. I’d love to see the % of students who left a failing district 3-4yrs after this rule came into effect to see exactly how many left. I’d bet it’s less than 5% because most failing kids’ parents don’t give two shits.
