Let me get a few words in here.
I am about to be a Senior in high school in a month when school starts agian.
And I have to disagree with this whole entire thread.
For 11 straight years, I've sit in classrooms learning as much as I could and gaining all the information I can. Not every single student or kid persay focuses on SWAG, I don't and many of my friends don't.
I for one, being a late 90's kid knows the titanic was real, but that was 100s of years ago, has no impact on anyones lifes now.
So you're basically judging all the students in America because they think Titanic is fake. Did you ever think that could rely on the teacher's shoulders?
I've learned everything from Titanic, World War 1-2, the American wars, math, english, science, and what not. So my academic skills are set. So now I will be focusing on my career. Culinary arts is going to be making up my senior year. I attend a vocational high school here in MA, and pretty much focused on Culinary all the years as well, but we do how ever get academics too.
So no, just to point out everyone does'nt worry about S.W.A.G.
When I become a good Chef, that will be my proof.
