Hmmm... I think learning a little about a lot is valuable, even if some things don't seem useful to the student at the time. When they're older they can choose what topics to go deeper into. But do I think there's some stuff taught that could be replaced by more valuable life skills or real world knowledge? Definitely.

From the stories I’ve read on the news the last few months I’d say yes if I lived in the city. I can’t believe the crap in those schools! Out here it isn’t that much different than when I was in school. The 3 R’s are still being taught. Mask less by the way

A teacher once told me that I'd never make a livin' staring out the window. But I got paid to drive a garbage truck for 21 years......so I've got that on her........

Look at school this way. School doesn't teach you the answers to the problems, it teaches you how to find the answers to the problems. As well as build a foundation of knowledge to go off of along the way ^^^^That's well put...

I have no problem with the core subjects. I have a problem with teachers on subjects like gun control, hunting and trapping. I was trapping chipmunks to feed by Hawk, and my grandson let one go. I ask my grandson why and he said it was not nice to kill animals. I ask him who told him that and he said his teacher. Keep to the subjects at hand IMO.

School is meant to teach you to be quiet, sit down and listen. These skills are essential to maintain the next generation of middle class tax cattle. Good point.

School is just a giant daycare.
