There are two keys to educational success: class size and involved parent. You don't need both. Smaller classes mean more teacher interaction with students.Parent involvement can make up for larger class sizes, but getting the parents to be involved is another thing alltogether.
The kids don't need air-conditioning, computers, expansive libraries, new carpeting, or any of the other things that steal money away from smaller class sizes. All of those things are nice, but more teachers trump all of them. If your child is "#6 of 30" then all you need to do it get involved in their education and they'll turn out fine.
Math, English, and Science thought in schools hasn't changed that much in the last 100 years.
