    This is an 8th grade graduation exam from 1912. 8th graders then were better prepared for life in the real world than 12th graders are today.

    Most kids go through 12+ years of school without learning how to think. They learn math and grammar, but they never learn critical thinking. 5 skills you need to be teaching your kids (and let's be honest, most adults need to learn them too) 👇

    Wait, so let me get this straight: Kids are *legally required* spend 7 hours in school, 180 days a year, for 13 years ... ... and yet 54% of American adults can't even read at a 6th grade level? Please make this make sense.

    There are schools in America where not a single student can read or do math at grade level. Read that again: not a single student. In the whole school.

    Why are we wasting 12+ years of kids’ lives on busywork that doesn’t matter, memorizing topics they don’t care about, trapped inside a system they hate? There’s a better way.

    Effective schooling can be done in only a couple hours a day. Most of the contents of a traditional school day are unnecessary bloat. Nobody questions the bloat, because school is also childcare. Which requires 7-8 hours a day of kids looking busy.
