For children, it doesn't help that SF public schools are terrible, and the demand for private schools is so high they can't keep up. That's why most people move

- jonathankoren 8y agoIt’s not just the quality of the schools, it’s the lottery system. You have no idea where your kid is going to go to school, and there’s not a lot of control over it. While I understand the intent of making all the schools equivalent, in practice you don’t know if your kid is stuck in a school on the other side of the city or not. It’s super confusing. We’ve been considering moving, but the lottery system keeping us from moving to SF. There’s other problems with the city too, but that’s the most serious one for us right now.
