You get more out of funding a good safety net so you don't send starving children to school and parents can spend time with their kids and get involved in their education.

Schools are that safety net, to some degree. They feed children and provide daycare, after all.

That safety net is part of education. Schools keep children off the streets for 7 hours a day, offer reduced lunch. Investing in a social safety net is code for investing in public education.

I think it's dystopian that we give schools that job. Nobody should NEED to go to school to eat. And what about the parents?
