It’s a nice idea but the problem would be who the teachers are. Some of them are great. Some are like the sensi from The Karate Kid.

In this time of spending less on education and educators (so the top 10% of our social classes can be richer and richer, but I digress), we should focus on teaching students to be the best they can be for themselves and their community. Participation in music classes has been shown to statistically increase student's IQs while providing benefits to their educational, cognitive, and social skills. I would like to see school curriculums rewritten to focus on music for every student and a secondary focus on physical education--martial arts, meditation/yoga, hiking to a dump site to clean it up, and more, choices of activity that takes both physical activity and provides a benefit to the student and community. I would put math in the second most important place and written and oral communication last. I would also like to see a paradigm in how we teach--switch from verbal to kinetic so every child can learn. But I'm dreaming.

I don't think any gym classes should be in school. Just my opinion from past experience. I think the focus should be on those that need additional help.

I'd love to see yoga and meditation taught in schools as well. Listen to the little conservatives scream!!

Because the general public are arseholes and would abuse the system . Ever watched karate kid that’s how it would be like without the good guys winning
