American School System

Imagine taking a time machine back to one's high school years. Visions of teenagers walking through cramped halls to their classes and sitting in incredibly unergonomic chairs come to mind. High school, as some say "Are the best years of your life", but quite a few people have issue with that statement. Many people will not deny that high school (and the American education system at large) does not have its fair share of problems. …

…that "Does not care about your sensitivity", according to my former high-school English teacher. While the problems may persist for a very long period of time, the structure of the typical American high school will hopefully change for the better over the years. Who knows, perhaps in twenty or thirty years Mark's children will be able to attend a high school which truly engages them, and does not treat them like sardines in a can.
