I don't doubt that it is more difficult to teach students who live in communities which do not value education. The solution to to this problem is not found in reducing inflation adjusted funding to all school districts in the state by 50%.

Many wealthy communities which value education have been able to set up foundations and other channels for private donations to make up for the lost Property Tax funding.

I find it interesting that most of the communities which have done this are in Northern California, whereas the response in Southern California has more typically been to send their children to private school. The cultures are quite different. Southern California seems a more transient culture with little commitment to their community.
