This is a debate. Not a fucking flame war. Don't say something if you have nothing intelligent to say.

If someone in school wants to know math history or other things that is mandatory in school know, make it an elective.
Students should not be given that much flexibility. Just because they don't like something doesn't mean it shouldn't be mandatory. Math is something that needs to be taught, the same thing goes for history. These are things that the student needs to learn, regardless of whether or not they want to learn it. Placing these classes under elective would be counter-productive.

I have to agree and disagree. While it's not the schools responsibility to teach you how to work at mega-corporation for minimum wage, it should be their responsibility to teach you how to find a job, and how to manage your finances once you have acquired said job.
Also. Google may be a resource to find near all answers to your problems, but it's not something that should replace school. Ever.
