Why property taxes for schools are Good

One easy way to guess quality of a school district is to see how much money it collects from local taxes vs. from State and Federal transfers.

You know – customer is always right.

Local tax percentage = more local control. More fear of residents moving out. More desire to keep the schools in good shape to keep the parents happy. Next thing you know – school principal gets off her butt and meets the parents.
