Economics teaches us the following: When you subsidize something, you get more of it. We've been subsidizing failing government schools for decades. Why would anyone expect different results by throwing more money at failure.
Performance is correlated with competition. We should issue vouchers and let free market schools, both non-profit and for-profit, compete in the free marketplace. That's a more effective way of sorting out the winners and losers among educational methods and policies.
