I can't really speak for America, but I think it's a bit extreme to suggest that the schooling system is outright negative. Isn't this chap just talking about redressing the art/ science balance?
And, to Mr Bradley - this may seem horrifically pretentious, but philosophy (good philosophy, philosophy well-studied rather than pontificated upon like porno top-trumps) comes from both a very egalitarian mindset that only become relevent when people reach a certain maturity. Everyone knows philosophy, the study isn't worth it until 'adulthood'. The basics - your Platos and DeCartes could be taught, but I'm happy enough that that's an option 16+ here.
I never had a single dance lesson growing up. I might've been the best dancer ever.
