The U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision in a Maine school choice case has opened the door for more cases across the country challenging education systems. As the midterms loom, “school choice” has become a major topic of discussion and a high priority for many voters.
In the case of Carson v. Makin, the Supreme Court said “communities that pay for students to go to secular private schools must also pay for them to go to religious schools. It was seen as a step toward expanding school choice nationwide. And in Maine, it set the stage for religious schools to receive taxpayer money in the form of tuition for the first time in over four decades,” Yahoo News reported. https://conservativebrief.com/court-choice-67234/?utm_source=CB&utm_medium=706
As a nice side effect, school choice would allow people to live wherever they want instead of being forced to try for "good" school districts.
School districts have always made marginal areas where property is cheaper a non-starter for parents who could afford better.
By decoupling these things, you could buy a house in a lower-income area but still provide a good education for your kids. This would make cheaper areas more economically integrated, and by default, less blighted.

It was difficult financially, but we paid for our sons to go to Christian schools & i homeschooled, which was FUN. Worth it to avoid the immoral socialist teachers & drugs & disturbed children.
