Keep the grades, but build on each student’s strengths?

We waste a lot of time during middle school and high school grooming them for liberal arts prep.

Instead, high school is when kids should be allowed to narrow down, cultivate, and build their foundational skills of interest.

Sports? Technical? Arts? Then in the final years allow them to branch if they wish but also to demonstrate and show how much they don’t know.

Instead, every high school has turned into liberal arts college prep; then we do it again for bachelors.

Waste of time classes for me: Spanish 2/3, English and composition, general sciences (the broad one that covers all sciences in one course)
