The people most capable of changing schools are the boardmembers and well funded unions. Private schools are simply the best alternative right now.

If you ban private schools, people will “group homeschool”. If you ban homeschooling, parents can pack cigarettes in their kid’s lunch sack until they are sent to continuation school where attendance isn’t required. Then the child is free to attend a “group tutoring academy”.

The solution is to make public education easier to reform by the members of the community.
