If The Villages attitude is "we just sell houses", and stands by while the quality of their main asset falls dramatically, why should they change if they are building and selling new houses as fast as possible?
They have the money to build a new high school better than a lot of small colleges. Rather than worry about a perfect physical plant to attract better workers, most parents would be really interested in the advanced placement programs and how many students apply to the very best colleges.
