8th Grade education

How much of the stuff on that test do you think those kids ever needed to know or use in their futures? As an 8th grader I doubt you're in any position to determine it anyway. Sorry if you take this as an insult but I had kids question what I was teaching them in HS math only to come back years later and either thank me or apologize for not paying attention. Trust me, you'll use some of that "bunch of crap" and what you don't need you'll forget.

Well said,I am choosing engineering as my shop for my technical school and what I got taught in 8th grade is defenatly coming in handy!

I'm in eighth grade and I am learning a lot of the stuff on that list. xD
But also, I'm homeschooled. In 6th grade I was doing 8th/9th grade level grammar. I'm currently doing highschool level history. The same history book my older sister(who is in 11th) was doing until she decided to do a different curriculum.
