Not a Fan of Public Schooling

I have never been a huge fan of the public school system in America for many reasons. I always felt like public school presented limitations despite the whole "free education" thing. Free education is a gift and luxury that we are able to receive luckily. However, I despise common core curriculum and how school emphasizes test scores more than learning. Getting a good score on a test does not necessarily mean that we fully understand the content and have actually learned. High school expectations and curriculum limit students from achieving their full potential. A through G requirements are good guidelines in preparation for college, however, I feel like as we get older, it would be better to focus on the classes we are actually interested in taking and drop the ones we aren't interested in. We shouldn't have to take a certain amount of years in math if we never plan on issuing a career involving math. This allows us to focus more on what we're good at and like, therefore further developing our skills instead of struggling to balance everything at once. College enables you to do this, however if we started that process in high school, figuring out what your major is in college should be easier. General education should still be established, however, there should be some reforms in order to benefit students more.
