Rewrite educations norms, as we are not being taught useful information.

The current education norms are not teaching our students to think critically and for themselves. The teachers merely throw out knowledge from a textbook that we forget after the test. We are required to know how to graph inequalities when this is absolutely useless to us when we get a job. This is why so many students fail. They give us too many things to remember, when really all we need to know is how to multiply, divide, add, and subtract. We need to rid ourselves of standardized tests and rewrite our education norms. We used to be top at the education, but we have been bumped down to the fourth position by Japan, Israel, and Canada respectively according to Market Watch. We need to rewrite the education norms, get rid of standardized tests, and increase funding to public schools.
