So you want to essentially tax parents for their kids' school struggles? 

Cutting costs on admins is the right start. 
Making it potentially harder on poor families is not. 
Giving them the option to send their kids to charter schools or private schools is a better way to get them involved. 

There is no way to tax or legislate family involvement. It's largely a cultural thing. It has to start there.
