>>My property taxes are 1.5 or 2.0% (I think -- sorry). <<

I want to move next to you! We pay 4.3%. They are spending 6700.00 per student and still whinning that they don't have enough money.

I live in California and we have Proposition 13. Our property taxes don't go up (to put it simplistically). There are people here who live in $15 million houses and pay something like $10,000 a year in property taxes. But when Prop. 13 passed they cut a lot of school programs, like sports, band and summer school. So parents have to pay for that kind of stuff.

They are spending $11,000 per student here, and we are still last ** pulling hair **

Just give me my damn money back, I'll quit work and school my child. Its a shame when our son comes home and tells us they are teaching what he already knows. What is wrong with parents that they don't even give a flip.
