Unfortunately, little Bobby doesn't give a darn about Mrs. Anderson, Social Studies, or her test. Little Bobby doesn't want to be in the class, and therefore doesn't care about the repercussions to him or Mrs. Anderson.
Well that just isn't correct.
Most of the 'dynasties' here in Texas are in high-wealth areas where the main demographic is the white family.
South Lake Carroll, Katy, Allen, Austin Westlake, Brock, Aledo to name a few.
These aren't schools where they're underfunded trying to get their kids to pass. These are schools where the parents are likely hauling in more than $300K a year and have prioritized education from a young age.

What does any of that have to do with what you quoted. I don't care if the school is underfunded or if the parents make $300k, a kid is a kid and they don't want to be in class.

Yeah the way schools are funded here and with how booster clubs contribute in some cases it lends itself to higher income areas being better. You can see that if you're familiar with Houston from that slideshow, there were only a handful of not so great schools I saw where the coaches were making bigger money.
They also all recruit kids to move to their district. The bigger HS football jobs are pretty high pressure, you don't get much sympathy for the kids just trying hard. In lots of instances at the major programs the coaches are angling for a college assistant job too
