Ask HN: For those of you who hated public school, how would you change it?
Currently enrolled in one right now, and I am curious to how public schools could cater to:
-autodidacts
-ambitious kids in mediocre environments
-fixing the college is the only respectable path mindset
-implementing more freedoms in terms of courses (I fail to see why literature would be useful to a math-minded student)
I strongly feel that the US public school system is broken for all of the reasons above being neglected. I'm curious to what solutions there could be to these issues.
