Absolutely, like an NTSB investigation. There is no benefit in assuming any particular conclusion beforehand. Qualitative and quantitative analysis to discover the factors. Perhaps something is amiss or something is beyond human reach. All-in-all, the US education system has steadily declined since the 1960's. A foreign language and Latin were required of everyone, even those not going to college. Financial skills, driving skills, physical education, workshop, drafting, and so on were standard. There's no need to revisit the culture of the past, but there is room to insist on excellence, preparedness, and instilling curiosity rather than drown students in counter-productive standardized tests and throw teachers on food stamps into classrooms with 50 students without resources.
