We're raising kids that dont care whats going on in the world. I think thats a really scary prospect. My favorite teachers in school were always the ones who would bring up an issue or current event and just ask us what we thought about it. More teachers should encourage kids to have their own educated beliefs about the world.
I had to have 60 hours of community service in school but everyone would bs it and just help teachers after school for an hour and have the teacher write down 4 hours. I think that you should have to do something that really helps the community.
I think music and other arts are really important. Sadly thats where most of the public school budget cuts are targeted at.

BTW this was a great thread idea
