What a scam for the people that live outside pulaski county. Taxed for Pulaski county schools, while their own schools need so much in rural areas. Pulaski county has thousands of million dollar homes that are taxed to pay for their schools. Many of these people that live in these expensive homes send their kids to private schools and don't even benefit from Pulaski co schools. So the poorest districts in the state are paying the richest district in the state. Idiocy.

This just go's to show that this is a sick world we live in. Desegregation was made law by LBJ years ago, and for anyone to be getting tax payers money for this is wrong. If anything the ones that are receiving moneys from this should be made to pay it back from years ago. This is our bigoted government and state at its best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
