The issue with advancing public schools standards to the standards of (insert special type of school here) is that public schools tend to be a catch-all. You have everything from very motivated kids with proactive and supportive parents, to kids that no separate school would accept in communities where very few teachers would want to teach.
It's also a bit unfair to paint public schools with the same brush, since there are good ones you know.
