I really don't get why the public system in the US doesn't work as well as it should. In Canada, our public system works quite well and I don't believe it's all that different from the US system.
With regards to removing your kids from the system by either sending them to private school or home school... you are a part of the problem. Taking your kids out of the system just means there is one less set of parents pushing for the system to be better. Fewer kids in the system which allows funding to be cut.
The most successful public schools are the ones where there is a lot of parent participation and strong community support.
