Yes, but a few things from a once smaller town that has grown into being a part of a major metropolitan area:

"Local" parents don't exist anymore in a lot of these places; you would have to shift it to "parents of children who attend" or some such because now children are essentially bussed in from less savory areas since those areas have no accountability for the gangs that prowl the area and thus have no schools.

It's very possible that the local parents get outvoted, and you lose.

So, in my opinion, schools should only be funded by the taxes of the parents who choose to use them, home schooling or community schooling should be encouraged with tax breaks, and on top of that waivers are still a good idea so that parents can get their kids to good schools that they are comfortable with.
