Why don't I get a property tax rebate for not using the schools?

My area is one of the most expensive areas in the usa for property taxes. They keep going up massively every year. The reason? "We have the best schools".

Ok great. However, I pay the 3rd most in the entire town and I have never and will never use the schools.

If parents get tons of tax advantages for having kids, they cant throw us a bone and give a tax rebate for living in a town X years and not ever using the schools (which are like 75% of the property taxes).

I get that it "takes a village" and therefore am not asking for a full refund, but SOMETHING would be nice..
