They tried that with Core and No Child Left Behind. AFAIK though deeply unpopular (for political and non-political reasons) they did raise the bottom bar of education in all the states.
Maybe for the lowest level of children. They screwed over the education system for many more in exchange
yea family of teachers they fucked school funding hard and ruined all extra curriculars in non rich school districts
No Child Left Behind is a neat idea, but IME in practice it leads to severely mentally disabled kids filling seats in classes where they are being “taught” subjects years ahead of their ability. It really just feels like extra stress for the students and faculty.
