Private schools are the reason why public schools are shit (sometimes in some places).

Rich people send their kids to private school and then they have no skin in the game. Public schools would get better if the wealthy had no choice but to make sure their children got a quality education.

The answer is "no more private schools".

Why not both? Just put public schools back under the control of the locals, like they used to be.

Public schools work nicely so long as neighborhoods function like private associations where you not only need to be able to buy the house, pay the taxes, and maintain your standard of living to move in, but also need to win the approval of your new neighborhoods.

When neighborhoods are just socialist cesspools filled with public housing, people on the dole, and forced bussing, then public schools are dead.
>>
>>73717355
Because then niggers, spics, and white trash couldn't go to school.
And as lovely as it sounds to send your kid to a school with no niggers, it means their would be even dumber niggers, spics, and white trash in America.
And all those dummies would be out on the street among the public more because they aren't in school.

If we were to just stop trying to uplift black kids that clearly don't want to attend school, the problem would be solved.

Instead we force these nigs to attend school as if it were a prison sentence to them. If they don't want to learn, why do we insist on forcing them? It's not just blacks, some whites are guilty of this too and it drags every student down when you have to lower the standards.

100% wrong.

Parents of kids in private school pay for tuition ON TOP OF the property taxes that fund the local public schools. Private schools don't deprive public schools of any funding.

Public schools are shit because they are ran by the government and the apes go to school there.

If public schools are trash you should consider changing public education. Stop pretending as if you have the only answer to all problems and there are no alternatives.

You could abolish public schooling and let the free market handle it or you can improve our current system by dismantling unions, creating a more hand-on approach in schools, teach kids relevant shit (like traffic laws and road signs) etc.
There's always more than one solution to a problem.

You are a tard. You think that a public school in a rich area is going to be any different from a private school? No. Instead of paying a tuition, there will just be large donations to school from the parents forced to go there.
>>
>>73717501
There's an easy workaround to that.

Give people vouchers they can use for education, and let the students (or the parents of the students) decide where they want to go.

The goal is to still make schools accessible, but to disenfranchise the leftists in academia by shifting the control of funding schools from the government to the people.

Then run schools (almost) like it's a business. At-will employment, so they could get rid of anyone for any reason--they could start purging leftists in academia. Force teachers to compete by measuring their performance and effectiveness as a teacher, and terminating those who underperform. Right now, you can be an incompetent teacher and you get to keep your job--right now, you can only get fired if you diddle kids and parents not liking you (for whatever reason). With a business-like performance reviews, you can better weed out incompetent leftists just hanging on to get that paycheck. This will also get rid of all that tenure bullshit--if tenured professors are not continually performing well (teaching, etc.), they can lose their tenure and maybe even get fired.

Privatization can do much to purge academia of leftists.

>>73719913
Oh nah the actual retards are fine, at least they have a reasonable excuse. I really just can't understand why 99% of black people are just so unwilling to learn, or attend school at all for that matter. Is it just ghetto culture or something deeper? They're all so fucking stupid that it hurts.

I guess segregation is okay when there's no racial motive behind it because schools still separate children based on aptitude. It's like they're admitting that the no child left behind policy was flawed.

this, it's good for social development, but yes some kids just get left behind or can't be tutored properly do to either overworked teachers or lack of budget. Privet schools do way better but most americans simply can't afford it.
>>
>>73717355
Well, because a good portion of students would simply not get a basic education for about a decade until private schools developed to fill in the gap.

Even then, the most poor would still receive no real education due to a lack of social pressures or income to force them into it.


>Playing doubles advocate

The bigger problem is that there is no real goal in the public education in the United States. We're attempting to teach future store clerks advanced physics, future physicists English poetry, and not teaching them how to balance a budget or pay taxes with fuck all importance placed on whether or not students are interested in subjects.

>BUT WHY SHOULDN'T KIDS GET APPRECIATION FOR THE ARTS?
Because they don't appreciate it. You'd be better off just letting them take a trial course or leave courses that they're simply sleeping through.

>WHY SHOULDN'T EVERYONE LEARN ADVANCED PHYSICS?

Why not teach everyone Latin? What is the goal of the system we're paying for?

Vouchers destroyed education in my state.

It works well in theory but what ends up happening is the public schools that actually do well (and there are some) get punished by way of having most of their top students stolen away by private and charter schools that in many cases aren't better.

It works when the entire public school system in a district is shit, but does a lot of harm when public schools in an area are already good.

Because education has high positive externalities, and thus a fully market solution doesn't reach the socially optimum amount of education. Which is why public expenditure on education exists.

Now, some people will mention school vouchers as a solution, but as someone who lives in a country in wich such "solution" is widely implemented, I can attest that it's quite flawed.

There's an study Martin Carnoy and Patrick J. McEwan showing that school vouchers fail to improve education for more than a small fraction of students, increases inequality and "privatization solves neither the gap in achievement between low-income children and higher-income children nor the gap in access to high quality schools."

People who defend school vouchers usually do it out of ideological interests (this system funnels students into mostly conservative, Catholic schools), rather than a desire of providing a geniune solution.

The school had a reputation for being the "preppy" school and having VERY high grade averages. After the "Victims" came, it dropped below average and into section 8 territory.

In college we all looked up our old schools to see how they were doing since we were talking about school funding in class
mine was below most other schools in grades and had high drop out rates.

I honestly used to love every type of people and would get mad at people who were prejudiced towards any one, especially if it had to do with race but after new orleans nigs came to Texas, I realized how wrong I was. Its a whole different breed of people. Reminded me of the movie Hotel Rwanda.

Oh im sorry, I forgot, its not pronounced "New Orleans", Its called NAWWWLANZ

>>73717355
Only in the US, because they get funding based on the wealth of the people who live in the area around the individual schools, so schools in rich areas have more money than they know what to do with and waste it on stupid shit, and schools in poor areas can't make a difference no matter how hard they try.
