Just one last post...

I would agree with your second suggestion. I'm not overly familiar with the US education system, but here in Canada it is at a provincial level. It'd probably be even more effective at a regional level.

 

In 1953 the US started running education at the federal level. Before that it was run either at the state level, or more localized. It was considered a state issue, so each state did it a little differently.

Education was a lot better back then. Today, in the sate I live in, we collect about 20k per student enrolled. I am not against that huge sum of money, but think of the education that could buy if you had a more efficient system to spend it in. The top private schools don't cost that much.
