I don't knock all public education.  The area I lived in VA had excellent public schools that routinely produced numerous National Merit Scholars.  One thing that I think helps is that you have a population of educated parents that are very involved in the public schools.  They held the schools to a standard.  

In NJ, my niece attended a public school that had "academies" within, for those that wanted additonal emphasis on STEM and the the Arts (two different programs, obviously).  

I'm not sure what the problem is in Alabama, other than the state government continues to cut education funds and in some areas, you don't have parents holding the schools to a standard.
