The best way to fight public schools in America is for mayors/city managers/city councils to abolish their public school districts, one city/town at a time. That will provide several benefits.
1. Academic achievement will increase, because private school students and homeschooled students often outperform public school students.
2. Cities and towns can spend the money that was once spent on public schools on other priorities such as infrastructure, libraries, parks and recreation centers, first responders, and/or lower property tax rates to encourage residents and businesses to move in.
