I got to disagree about rural schools not having access to the information being avaible. The public school where my kids go wins awards every year for being one the best not only in Texas, but also in the country. To me its not the quanity of education but the quality of the education. Its also parents being invloled. Parents double checking home work. Parents makeing themselves avaible to not only their childeren but also to the teachers.

I would also like to add we dont have a football program. Every year it gets brought up, and every year it gets voted down. We have advance computer labs, a great libary, heck we even donate books to it(choose your own adventure books). The high school kids can take collage classes their jr and sr years and get credit for both collage and high school.

And your right, not every school is equal.
