Thinking back, the most useful classes I had in school were...

1. Gym class in elementary school where we got to climb the rope up to ceiling in gymnasium and had a bike safety course and had to balance for an amount of time in the small box

2. Learning to use pens and cursive in elementary English classes. Relatedly, all the basic maths up to simple algebra helped reinforce what was already learned before public school.

3. 5th grade science gave an intro to basic chemistry and safety in the lab

4. Home Ec classes in middle school with touch points on cooking, sewing, cleaning and sex ed focused on body parts, feelings, risks, std types and protection (all pre propaganda)

5. Shop classes in middle school where we got to make acrylic photo frames, tic tac toe game boards with pegs, wall mount coat hangers, shelves and more. I still have this stuff.

6. Spanish classes in middle and high school, though I need to make time to really learn and immerse myself

7. Biology and Chemistry classes in high school. Practical information.

8. Accounting and Business management classes in high school at vocational center. Helps have a basic understanding, be able to do bookkeeping, reporting, organize stuff.

Pretty much everything else did not add any practical life value and was meant to conform to the factory slave mindset. We need to fix education to be more efficient and effective and less full of fluff.

What I wish I knew more of...

History. The most readily available but just skimmed over in my education. Challenge now is discerning what history is true, and what is written by those in power.

Man I loved history. That was my favorite class in school.

I liked English too but only the reading assignments. Essays and writing weren’t my thing.
