Give me one that is used anywhere. How do you enforce compliance from parents if they do not comply voluntarily?
Here's one...
http://www.nais.org/admission/parents/here's a website dedicated to this subject.
http://www.familyeducation.com/article/1,1120,23-16631,00.htmlPrivate schools have some good ideas. That doesn't mean we should abandon public schools like voucher proponents would suggest we do.
I believing it's less expensive to fix the system... than it is to abandon it.
Compelling parents to participate can be as simple as threatening them with fines.
And this is a reasonable solution and there is already presidence to compelling parents in this manner.
For example recent child abandonment/endangerment laws, now require parents to pick up and drop off children under certain ages (I think it is around 8 years old) - rather then allow them to walk to and from school alone.
