Classes of a Different Nature

The idea of this traditional education system has become less valuable, because it is a system that repetitively teaches a lot of content that we will likely never use.  I personally think that this education system should be reconstructed in a way that teaches students everyday life scenarios.  Perhaps, if there were classes such as racism, politics, poverty, and just a class that centers on what students want to do in life, then maybe students can enter into a realistic standpoint of reality.  Instead, we learn the same things repetitively with the same contents getting harder and harder as we progress in school.  Of course, it is valid to have reading, writing, and arithmetic, but that should only be taught up to elementary or junior high.  Then, for the last years of high school we can learn contents of a different nature.  These reforms will be a better preparation for students, because they will at least have some idea of what life really is.
