What do Farcaster parents think about schools?

The only I’m high conviction on is that trad schools don’t offer the feedback loops to stay current.

Most schools today still function like the ones I attended growing up. But the world is completely different now. That disconnect is what worries me.

academic is becoming increasingly less important.

u want them to be socially adjusted.

also the school, other parents, and teachers matter.

Can you describe what you think is the ideal form? ie is it mon-fri all day schedule? what would they do if not academics? etc

seems like form factor good (social setting, place outside home, teachers, etc)

substance is what needs changing/updating

i still believe in mon-fri as a form factor. 

i have met many parents who homeschool, and it ends up being similar, as the parents burn out, and they just get tutors to fill the day. 

but lose the social interactions of a classroom that are a learning experience. 

if public, it depends on one’s flexibility of choosing a school district. not all schools are created equal.

if private, better options overall.
