The political culture in the United States would attack that system as being unfair to the poor and minorities that ostensibly received a lesser education than their middle- and upper-class cohorts.
When something like that existed in California, that wasn't the thing that destroyed it, rather, it was funding pressure from anti-tax crusaders.
The kind of people who advocate for fairness for the poor and minorities are more likely to advocate for moves back toward that system rather than away from it.
