Why can't this work like this?
If you want to attend private school, and since this is about education, then you have to attend the nearest school to your geographic location. Obviously there can be waivers, perhaps an alumni legacy exemption or if you play sports/classes that school doesn't offer. But you can't tell me a kid driving from Mandeville to John Curtis every day is doing so because of the great educational experience.

What's wrong with that? Doesn't that eliminate all of the gripe from the non-select schools?

There's four 5A Catholic schools within a four mile radius of each other in New Orleans.
