uhhh
a lot more
Texas schools HAVE to offer at least 8 major paths
half of which have to be CTE paths
We had:
Football
Band
Social studies includes history, geology, sociology, archeology, fucking all in one like a Happy Meal. US education is legit McDonalds
my high school had programming and advanced math, but almost no art, and they were getting rid of the fitness programs
And we were the biggest public school system in my part of the state
you guys had programs?
Social studies is the worst, but like in the lower levels, "Science" is divided into field by year.
history is important imo
HAH
history!
Forcing all students take 4+ gen ed classes per day is stupid
WHAT history do you learn in HS?
It breeds apathy
you learn a dumbed down irrelevant meaningless and GAY version of history, not History
Children should not learn “science” in k-8 and then in high school start dividing up into actual subjects. It has to be indoctrinated from the very beginning from first grade onward @platonic chain
@Froge i learned US history for 8 years and it was the same shit repeated in different ways every time <:atlast:758774926869004348>
i'd rather know the basics of my history, rather than no history at all tbh
and if someone wants more, they should have the option to take more nuanced history
Literally it's divided into general topic by grade level
The bigger issues are mathematics and reading.
You need those before you can do science well.
Okay but math has many subjects. They do all in one and call it math lmao
Reading and composition needs a major rehaul. I sucked ass because I was forced to do shitty vague writing prompts for tests that accounted for 25% of my grade
Reading right now has a MAJOR problem in that we are teaching students with failed 1950's era reading techniques which while good for interventions and leeting slow students keep pace, cucks them out of learning fully.
Mathematics is many subjects, yes, but the biggest issue is that we have ineffective mathematics teachers
Like right now the reading technique they are using is RETARDED
They don't even teach PHONICS anymore in many places
FIRST OF ALL, we need to get rid of WOMEN ADMINS AND TEACHERS
I took a bunch of history and as an adult it has done nothing for me
They do it pure pavlovian style
"SEE DICK RUN"
"RUN DICK RUN"
is back in vogue
There is arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, real analysis, complex analysis, topology, number theory, etc.
english, math, sciences all of them massive benefits
