Fair points, although I'm not sure that's easy to solve. Some teachers are more interesting than others, but schools, especially middle and high schools are too generic for a whole class to be able to listen. Not everybody is going to enjoy chemistry class, while others are just not going to be happy in PE or foreign languages (me). I think a major rework of the school system is required for this to be kind of solved, but it'll never go away completely.
I think putting all the responsibility on schools is not the right approach, they're probably already doing their best, but that just doesn't work on every kid
