There are a lot of ways to answer that. Firstly, a lot of companies who no longer trust public education to do their part in preparing young people for future employment are starting their own programs to ensure a future pool of talent. Secondly, some areas of the country with a more realistic view of public education -- e.g. Wisconsin -- are supporting voucher programs which better allocate dollars to programs that prove successful. Thirdly, if you're a parent and you REALLY care about the education and well-being of your child(ren), it may not be necessary (in fact may be counterproductive) to live in a neighborhood with $400,000 houses and ship the kiddies off to private schools.
