The people live in those areas of Springfield for a reason. That reason is "to avoid Springfield schools!" Not rocket science! Besides what you propose is illegal without a vote of Willard school district voters and therefore would never fly!

Obama has brought us to our knees with $1.6 trillion in deficit in 2009 and so far this year $$1.9 trillion and counting. Time to wake up and smell the coffee.
