      we would need to change the way schools are funded. right now, they are supported mostly by local property taxes, which means that wealthy places get wealthy schools, which perpetuates the wealth cycle.
      we would need to shift funding more onto the federal budget. this would also create justification for a more uniform standard across the country.

      What most of the naysayers here don't seem to comprehend is that not only do wealthy areas have more property taxes for schools, they also do much better when fundraising for additional income. Even if we iron out the former, they will still have the latter, so they won't suffer, ffs.

    I spent two years at a school that was half condemned. Just past my class were fire doors chained shut. Lead paint held the rest together. Next year they condemned it all and set-up a makeshift school in closed-down factory. Eventually they gave-up and shipped us all to the next county and combined three or four schools in an existing one.
    We didn't even have a library till the last one. In the factory (school) the girls used the staff bathroom because there was just the one for workers and one where the offices were.

    I read that others think since Carmel is such an affluent area, the schools gets all the funds from the city. Wrong. Carmel High School is way more underfunded than the inner city schools by far. It has to do with the parents demanding quality schools, teachers and administration. Along with law enforcement. Clay township schools meets these demands put on by the parents in the city. Alot of parents also volunteer their own time to assist in making this school as good as it is by demanding their kids perform in school.

      This school only funds $9k a year per student. This is a cultural issue. The community CHOSE (by how they vote) to appropriately allocate funds, then they raise kids who have self respect and respect for property. So they take care of their school. If this same exact school was built in any inner-city by donated funds, the community would ruin it within a few years. Want a better life? Create better families and then move to where others do the same. We did - there was no way I was going to raise my family in Detroit.

    FYI, Carmel is one of the schools we faced for sports in our school’s division. You want to talk about some of the most snobby, entitled kids I’ve ever met? Carmel is the kind of town that looks you up and down before they would ever say hello. And I think this video shows all of us from surrounding high schools just how much privilege and special treatment they get for having lived in a area with just a couple more wealthy people. It’s sickening. Especially when my school has had professional sports players and Olympic athletes as alum, it doesn’t make any sense to me why our school doesn’t have enough funding for like half of this.

    To be able to solve the schooling problem (and healthcare, social welfare etc.) you need to stop your phobia of high taxes.
    In order for that to become true, you must get rid of corruption (i. e. non tax funding, including political campaigns).
    That's difficult in a country like the US, where so few people have experience of a non-corrupt system, with publicly funded political campaigns.
    Companies shouldn't be allowed to fund stuff at all with un-taxed money. They should pay higher taxes instead.

    If you want better for your kids then do something about it. I live in a fairly poor rural area, yet we have a fabulous school system. Why? Because the people and businesses in this area take pride in the school system and support the kids. People step up and help out where needed and offer financial what they can. Not everything is about race. Sometimes it’s priorities that are lacking.

      ...completely agree. People are complaining about race...about it being "rich"...ect. If anyone cares to look into this Carmel HS spends roughly 10K a year per student. Compare that to city schools like Baltimore or Boston...where they spend roughly $25K per student per year. To me this schools speaks volumes about what can be if the community, faculty and students care about school.

    Not surprised though. Today, I laugh about the high school in Chicago, that I attended. Neighborhood has gentrified significantly so the school now has grass and athletic field. I remember a friend recently mentioned learning how to cook because of high school cooking class and I'm like, "you're high school had a cooking class?!" 😅😅 I definitely would have known sooner, what career I would have wanted, if my school had more resources. Even my teachers were fed up with school. 😅

      @@markbenjamin1703 the $10k figure is on average across the entire district and this school is the crown jewel getting the majority of the funding.
      Another explanation is if a lot of those facilities were donated by wealthy alumni and don't count in their $10k figure. There is no way Carmel Clay does not benefit from substantial spending from PTAs and individuals which aren't counted in their per pupil spending. It's easy to not spend a lot when others buy you stuff.
