My brother teaches in this district. The public school system is broken. You shouldn't have to leave your neighborhood for a quality education.

The tax paying citizens of any community have the right to expect that their tax dollars are being used well and to benefit the community. If the government can't meet these expectations the citizens have the right to enact a change.

You can't blame people for wanting a better and safer learning environment for their kids.

I don't know what "the problem" is, but I bet it encompasses a variety of things. I moved into my current city 30 years ago, when students couldn't read on grade level and I moved again, for a better job, and came back 25 years later. This new generation also can't read; yet, how much money was spent on administrators who promised grade-level reading while I was gone?

On April 29, 2024, the Louisiana Supreme Court ruled 4-3 in favor of the proposed City of St. George, Louisiana, which will be the state's first new city in almost 20 years. The court ruled that the incorporation plan was reasonable and would provide residents with proper public services. St. George will be a city of almost 100,000 people, making it one of Louisiana's largest cities.

The City of St. George won a ruling in the Louisiana Supreme Court that they could proceed with the creation of the city. The city of Baton Rouge has pledged to appeal but it looks like a tough road.

I'm a black male and unfortunately, I can understand why people are pulling away from the public school system. The public school system is riddled with issues that schools in the suburbs don't have. I have seen the problems firsthand and would not want my own kids involved in the chaos at these schools. In order of public schools to work, there has to be money invested in these schools for security and other strategies to help maintain order. This is the primary problem. There has to be the will to make the changes needed. However, these schools have to be funded equitably and have the same type of resources as kids in the suburbs for these kids to have an equal chance at succeeding. But if the federal government and the state won't step in the make this right, you leave people no choice but to leave. This is a double edged sword.

So if the majority of wealthy residents move out of the city which means the money leaves then what is the answer.. you can not hold people hostage where they don’t want to be they don’t want to take care of the poor anymore and they have a right to create something better!

...the schools are actually more segregated than they were when he was MURDERED* There, fixed it...(folks love to be oblivious and try to rewrite history 🙄)
@kstearns921
Aww the principal getting emotional really got me. He cares about his kids so much.
@purplekey9330
To me, the "Im against busing" argument has a lot of unsaid implications Because the "problem" bussing brings is brimging people from other neighborhoods into theirs. And in their mind at least, this brings problems to them. And hearing it from a predominantly white neighborhood i cant help but see racial implications
@johntillotson4254
You can tell the principal loves his students
@Larry-zv8li
i've spoken with COUNTLESS older black folks who were in school during B v B and it amazes me how disgusted they were at the ruling pro integration in education. they could care less about going to school with white kids, it was the quality of education they received when the black teachers were made janitors and cooks and the white teachers took over.
@81redddd
The schools in Mississippi are still segregated as well, jps is segregated and the schools are in such bad shape that they’ve had to close several and combine the schools together 🙄 you now have elementary, and high schoolers all at the same school and it’s chaos. A lot of the schools had plumbing issues, no heat/air and even rats.
