n Louisiana-Huge difference. Louisiana doesn’t want great public schools though because the catholic mafia private school cash cow would start to suffer. Louisiana public school education stays in last place by design.

I never considered that.
I grew up in rural Oklahoma. I doubt there was a private school option within 100 miles. Then I moved to Louisiana and everyone that could possibly afford it sent their kids to private schools. I mean people making 40k/year scraped together enough money to send their kids to private schools. At first that seemed nuts to me. But after seeing East Baton Rouge public schools I realized why.
