I wish San Francisco could bring itself to embrace charter schools.

I wish San Francisco could bring itself to embrace charter schools. SF is a perennial laggard in educational performance for its public schools. There are a few good schools, mostly heavily leaning Asian --due to parental acculturation. But, for the most part the schools are very under-performing. I wish there was something to get them to address the issue --and parents need to stop thinking 'education' and aptitude begin and stop in the classroom. Also, it would help to have special schools for children of parents for whom education was not part of their upbringing --those kids need some full blown indoctrination to get them to see schooling as an essential part of their lives and not something which interrupts their lives.
