And longer school terms means higher costs, which must be borne by the taxpayer, mostly in the form of higher property taxes.

Ah! Property taxes!
No citizen in the United States “owns” their home or business. They are really renters. They pay yearly rent ( misnamed “property tax”) to the government. If they fail to pay their rent ( “property tax”) their landlord ( the government ) will evict them.
And...When looking at property taxes the first rock to look under is the schools.
Schools enslave the citizens in more ways than can be counted.
AMEN to that!
