Free public schools is one of the basic tenets of communism. It's the perfect vehicle to indoctrinate the young. Read a first grade science book sometime. I guess if you're going to teach ridiculous ideas such as abiogenesis, macroevolution, and big bang cosmology, then you must start at a very young age.
I myself was taught at public schools my whole life. But I consider myself lucky, as the schools I attended always had some form of gifted program geared toward accelerated learners, and which taught the subjects on a much broader and deeper level, with teachers who actually enjoyed engaging the students in critical thought. The other students were always very interested in what we were taught, and wished that they too could be in those classes. I'll never forget telling my fellow third graders what a dictator was. They didn't seem too interested in memorizing the Gettysburg Address, however.
The problems facing public schools seem to me insurmountable only due to the world-view that governs them. Pluralism leads to privatization, which in turn leads to alienation from our peers. The final result is a broken society. It will only be when our educational leaders see that the knowledge of God is the essential aim of all education and understanding that the school system, and country in general, will once again be on the right track.
