To government, some students are more important than others. Education is supposed to be about students, not community income levels.
"David Page leads a school district advisory committee that weighs in on funding for disadvantaged schools. He argues the school board violated its own policies by not properly consulting his group on the plan and "acted in bad faith towards parents."
Page is filing an official complaint that calls on the school district attorney to tell the board to cancel its vote immediately so it can get more parent input and response before making its decision.
Changing how federal money for disadvantaged children is divided up in San Diego Unified schools is one of the touchiest issues in the district. Currently, all schools where more than 40 percent of students qualify for free lunches get a slice of $23 million. Schools with higher poverty levels get more money per student."
In this case, good, bright students have education funding taken from them and given to those mostly not interested in education.
Good reason for charter and private schools--government education is about the lowest denominator, not the best for all students.
Government education is not for the benefit of the students, it is for the pleasure of the special interests--the unions.
