Our public schools are slowly bleeding to death due to family flight. We need to stop the bleeding.
A major problem in San Frnaicsco is family flight. There are many reasons why families with children are leaving our city. One of them is our public schools. Parents are mainly concerned about their children's happiness. They send their children to school to get a good education so they can fully develop their unique talents and abilities and live successful, happy lives. To attract and retain families with children, we need to focus on improving the quality of education in our public schools, particularly in the lower-performing schools, and give parents more school choice. If we can't do that, parents will continue to choose to send their children somewhere else.
