My world history teacher just said this:

“School is kinda pointless. You go to elementary school for four years so that you can go to middle school for another four years so that you can go to high school for another four years to get a piece of paper that says you can go to college for another four (or more) years to get another piece of paper that allows you to get a job where you will earn pieces of paper for the rest of your life.”

I kinda agree
