Damn, I thought Cali was supposed to have better public education than the rest of the country. No water, no air, and no education? Surprised people still live there at this point.
Funding for education in the state has been cut many times over the last few decades. when I was in grade school (in CA) there were like, maybe 20 kids in each class. Now it's closer to 40. My girlfriend's mom is a teacher and routinely has to spend her own money to buy supplies for her class. And charter school/voucher bullshit is being pushed pretty hard here. I got a pretty good public education but gen Z and younger are probably in for a rough ride.
