In terms of rights: most states have laws dictating that a child must receive a certain level of education (for example up until the age of 16 or until graduating whichever comes first). So a child has a right to an education regardless of parents will. The word ‘right’ amazingly enough has a definition beyond the Constitution.

Here’s the basic situation I want you to explain to me. What happens when the property taxes collected from parents who send their children to a school are lower than all costs associated. If its simply “The Fed will pay” then I ask you, what difference does it make that one of your taxes is used to pay, rather than the other. You’re still paying, either way.
