I have a better idea.
Teach English, Math, Sciences, a trade and/or computers, and History. (real History, not Louis Farrakhan history)
Mandatory physical fitness as well. It’s bad when I’m in better shape than 85% of high school students.

Yep. I taught for decades in an urban public high school. Well, about 15 years ago the central administrators decided that American History was to be an optional course, and could be replaced by either World History or African History.

Most of the history teachers were very upset by this. How can you live in a country and not know its history? No matter. It was a done deal.

By the way, the (very liberal) teachers unions have nothing to do with this. They can huff and puff all they want. But curriculum decisions are decided at the state and at the school board level. In my experience, union input is neither asked for nor wanted.
