I mean, does anyone on here really think that the public schools in New York or Massachussetts are on par with the public schools in South Carolina, Texas, or New Mexico?

Or how about West Virginia schools vs Washington State?

Something should be done, but like with every good idea, the "consquences" associated with the good idea tends to be what derails the good that would come from a good idea if properly executed.
There is already a standardized educational system in our country. Every state has an Educational Scope and Sequence that is required.

Here is the pdf for the Texas educational system:

When you have school choice, you follow the scope and sequence recommended by your state. You are then able to choose which curriculum would best suit your student.
