Abolish bells
Indie Rock rages during passing periods
Long, meandering breaks between class to talk, eat, sleep…
Actually, just kill classes
Forget English
Let’s read magazines,
write novels using text messaging
All we need of math
We’ll learn from planning road trips
How much are concert tickets?
How many miles is the tour?
Science is easy
Hydroponics, grow-lights
As many plants as we can pack in
History of music
or rebellion
(just not all that 1960’s s***)
Form a band for music
Learn graffiti for art
Design video games for tech
Send teachers on vacation
We’ll determine what we need to know
