> the hard part is what to do about it?

After 8 years in a public school, I've decided enough is enough. I've attended numerous school board meetings. Written to teachers. Given generously to the teacher funds. Voted. Nothing works. So we've saved up some money. We'll be putting our kid in a private school starting next Fall. It's hard, yes. It's hard on him - he's going to miss his buddies. It's hard on us - $40000 per year for high school, thanks America! I honestly don't know what else to do. There's a second private school in the area that charges $65000 per year, so perhaps I should console myself that I'm being responsible by saving $25000 per year.
