Part of the reason we had an environment were the students couldn't switch schools because it was deemed racist and anti-semitic when the teachers complained about "disruptive" students in the 60's and 70's, and wanted the ability to boot them out of the classes.

Where would they go?

Part - no, make that ALL - of the reason private schools are more orderly than public schools is because private schools can CHOOSE WHICH STUDENTS ATTEND THEM. Public schools are by their very nature public. We don't get that choice.


. . . whenever any government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute a new government, laying its foundations on such principles and organizing its powers in such forms as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
