Answer 2

That's going to be a hard sell. Part of the function on school especially these days is that you have adult supervision while your parents are at work. You might try to see if you can find studies which would support the idea that there should be more physical activity during school such as the current movement to keep recess. (Some people even want to take that away.) Doing any one thing for prolonged periods, even studying, can lessen your concentration. You might want to suggest a more activity-based school, where people could get more concentrated skills development, like internships, off-campus or something. Good luck! I have actually found very little that I learned in school all that useful other then the idea that you need to look any given situation from a good number of different perspectives and angles, so that you can develop empathy between positions and build bridges, and sometimes use the same strategy to win arguments. Think about how the administration could benefit from having a shorter school day as well. I also found that while school perhaps prepared people for reading writing and arithmetic, most of the problems in life have to do with people's emotional baggage, and negotiating different things. Perhaps your classes should be more oriented toward solving those kinds of problems. Why don't we have classes about how to build stronger marriages? Or ending wars? Or the relationship between capitalism and classism.. or a class on the negative aspects of competition... Good luck! I wish I had a class right now on how to build a group of friends now that I'm out of school. It's much harder once you're out.

Answer 3

I do not think that is the answer. Overall, the US is loosing its focus on education. They feel that the answers lie in more math science and english classses when in reality we are not all wired that way. Certain students need the arts and humanaties to vary their day and allow this part of themselves to grow. We are all not those kind of thinkers but the Govt thinks that making things laws and mandatoy will cure our countries learning defecit.

Answer 4

What exactly do you mean? You want the kids to be in school less time or is it that time dedicated to school-related activities at home -like homework and special assignments- be done in the classroom so kids will have more time at home? Be more specific, please.
