Washington Elementary School in Downtown San Diego went and opened their doors, campus and arms to a failing nearby private school and in return that nearby private school agreed to join the campus as long as they didn't actually have to interact with those "public school" kids.
From KPBS:
Teacher Jeannie Heffly says the former private school students belong to a special program on one side of the campus that offers field trips, small class sizes and enrichment courses including art, music and PE.
Don't worry though, this is just a misunderstanding. The parents of those private school kids have cleared everything up, you see, (those public school kids) have the same things they've always had. Us coming there hasn't changed their programs...
So you see, they aren't missing anything (like smaller classes and PE and field trips) because they didn't have them in the first place! So it's not like they need them now... they are just public school kids after all. We'll call this the "you don't even know what you're missing dumb poor people just be happy we'll let our kids on the same campus as yours" defense.

Look we came to your school but that doesn't mean we have to be a part of your school
