Wanting to learn.
I was apart of a very orthodox religious school who’s main appeal is their dual curriculum setup. They start with judaics at 7 am with secular studies from 12:40 pm to 5 pm and then more judaics from 7 - 9 pm. I never had a proper education and when I went to the secular education principle to be put back into arithmetic, she got quite pissed at me and mocked me for even wanting this. I went on a complete and utter fucking tangent not going to school until they fucking put me in arithmetic.
After I somehow graduated in 2022 (with absolutely fucking nothing – no diploma or anything) i went to community college and finished multivariate calculus from arithmetic within 2 years span. Shit I even graduated with a degree in mathematics.
I recently went back and started substituting there during my winter break off of university, and it has effectively become so fucking shitty that while I was subbing, the entire day was spent drawing… fucking drawing.
These aren’t kindergartners, these are 6th, 7th, and 8th graders, they should be learning algebra at this point, and they’re just familiarizing themselves with exponents. The 8th grade doesn’t even have a teacher to teach fucking math.
With all that said, I sent an email to the principle implying a dillema, “either you can bring the secular program up to standard, or I will cut it” the principle never responded and I may have no choice but to send a cease and desist letter as a more formal course of action and an additional warning if they don’t cooperate.
