We can only dream about these. Often the school affiliation feels like shackles.
We can't take home-schooled kids from within our own town.
Except for large distances where air travel is preferred/required we must travel by bus. This is complicated by the fact that our school system's buses cannot leave the state, so travel has become very expensive (sometimes prohibitively so).
The option of going rogue exists but means the students would have unexcused absences for weekday events.
