Actually, that's not true. There is a repeatable formula, and it's straightforward. Improve the student:teacher ratio--it's the only one shown to actually work. However, you have to start doing things like doubling the number of teachers. Nobody seems to be willing pay for that--so all the "improve our schools" is empty rhetoric.
The student:teacher ratio is another myth that doesn't bear up to actual facts. Other countries, such as Japan, have higher ratios than we do but their students do much better. Find another cause.
