You could probably fit it into the K-12 program without losing any value elsewhere if you cut out things like memorizing maps in regions of the world that are so unstable that those maps won’t be valid anymore by the time kids graduate, studying writers like Shakespeare that lived so long ago that what they wrote in could barely be called English, and mandatory electives.

A lot of schools have this already but are very good about naming them non-obvious things.

My sons is called success 101.

mm, idk i’d have to see the class materials to be able to tell you whether or not this was true philosophy. The best phil classes are the ones by the insane teacher. That’s how you know you’re going to learn something.

Well he’s still pretty young, its like an intro class but theres more as they go. Some schools have kept up pretty well, I’m obviously not in a republican state.

you would definitely need to push this as a required junior/senior class, the unfortunate thing is that you need a legitimately insane teacher to actually learn something valuable from it. Generic course material doesn’t work as well for something like this i think.

There are definitely some interesting ways to integrate it into english though, that’s an idea.
