      @thatonestocking MAn, we didn't have anything like that in my High school, at least not that I can remember. Last time we did was middle school. I had a lot of those kinds of classes that worked all year, even on the days before break and such.

        @anarchycarcino @thatonestocking In my high school and middle school we did field trips the last day of classes to amusement parks, etc., but we weren't year round.

          @pony Not year round? I haven't had a field trip since elementary.

            @anarchycarcino we had short breaks for Easter and Christmas, and we got a day or two off for Thansgiving and other holidayts, but there was only 1 long break for summertime.

              @pony Well yeah, that's like most schools. I've never met anyone who had year long school aside from my cousins.

                @anarchycarcino more and more schools are switching to year round it seems. I'm guessing field trips are determined by the participation of the parents and the general wealth of the local population.

                  @pony Yeah, most likely. My friend went to Laguna high and they get a week off just because for no real reason.

                        @anarchycarcino Standardized education is bleh in general, but I guess it's better than nothing. I'll be homeschooling my kids.

                          @pony I dunno, I guess I came out okay. Though I really can't say I learned anything worthwhile at school.

                                @anarchycarcino yeah. and science pff~ Every kindergartener knows that's messed up. I mean light is totally not faster than heavy.

                                  @pony Science isn't my strong point, since it ties into higher math classes.

                                    @anarchycarcino oh math.. maybe some day I'll understand you fully. Matrices are scary to me.

                                      @pony I learned everything practical, why should I care what the squareroot of 96x8^2 is and then do a proof on it is?

                                        @anarchycarcino That's a useful skill if you're hired by NASA to prove a satellite's construction is sound or a big company that needs to guarantee that a piece of software it's developed won't produce any erratic results, but for a normal Joe, proofs aren't a big deal.

                                          @pony Exactly, I've no intention of working in any field that needs them.

                                            @anarchycarcino on the other hand, mathematicians make bank because their skills are in high demand. I sometimes wish I had that kind of skill.

                                              @pony I don't, and do not want to push myself into learning these silly and complicated numbers. I am happy being able to count to 6.
