Sending your child to a school like this is worth any sacrifice.

Sandstrom believes public education has declined in recent years. I looked his
resume up on the legislative website and found he has a BA from BYU, a school
ranked 72nd in the nation. Who is he to say what is good or not? Just because
he isn't intelligent enough to have gone to a top university, doesn't
mean there are millions of Americans, educated in public schools, who are.
Wearing a Challenger uniform doesn't change anyone's IQ. Why is it
that mediocre Utah county residents love to bash public schools? I predict
these Challenger students will go on to attend a mediocre college just like
their parents did (if they go at all).

The statistics on challenger before you make a statement please. Challenger is a
fine education and the parents who send thier kids there are still contributing
to public education while freeing up seats in the public schools. sounds like a
win-win to me.
