Government education is a key problem. I would close the Department of Education. Remove truancy laws. Open the education market fully.
That said, I think we also have a cultural problem in the US. We value conformity over curiosity. We value entertainment over knowledge. We do not appreciate our wealth. We do not teach personal responsibility. We don't realize our potential.

I've also worked in education and my dad was a teacher for a long time. Nothing surprises me either.
