I definitely agree its the parents, but let's not pretend that these schools in urban areas are run well.
if you were a great teacher, would you want to teach at a school where there is a threat of physical violence each day? And since you probably don't want to live near that shitty area, you would have a long commute. Students who aren't engaged. And probably shitty administration.

Yes, and I would like to have even more ways for kids who want to learn to get out and go to a different school via vouchers, etc.
That being said: It's still the parents (collective) who are responsible for those terrible schools. The difference in a slightly lower than average school versus a bad school versus a terrible school is just the number of kids who don't care (i.e. parents who don't care).
