gavra: If the district runs out of money, and the State offers none, it will be the black and hispanic public school parents running to the State begging for money to restore all the gutted non-mandatory classes, leaving the public schools with a skeleton curriculum of mandatory-only courses and hours.
The state could (I don’t know what they will do) then place those children (who want public school) in outside districts and pay those districts directly, subtracting that amount from any funds the state normally pays to the district itself. Certainly reasonable if the number of public school children within the district drops (which has to be expected).
Or HaGaon Rosh Yeshiva BMG Aaron Kotler can pull a rabbit out of his black hat. He has done it in the past. Perhaps they will call it “E-Rate” 🙂
