This would tend to reduce boredom and purposelessness. Character Education Government schools claim to be neutral on issues of religion and morality, but they necessarily cannot be. So government schools must foster some form of character or moral education, at least implicitly. However, in claiming to be value-neutral, government schools cannot help but to perpetuate a certain cynicism when it comes to moral beliefs. Government schools also conflict with the moral philosophy of many parents.
Government schools ask children to leave their parents' morality at the front door.
This too likely contributes to a certain cynicism in moral beliefs. In a market system of schools, schools can integrate children of different religions without thereby claiming to be value-free. Parents can also choose to send their children to schools amenable to the parents' beliefs, be those schools Christian, secular humanist, or whatever. Character and moral education are important to a child's upbringing, but government schools must stay out of that discussion. The alternative is to spend tax dollars to promote particular spiritual and philosophical views.
