The Perfect Set of Classes

If I could create the perfect curriculum and set of classes to prepare myself for the life I want to live, there would be many changes in the average schools’ way of doing things. In my “perfect school”, there would be 7 classes a day. The classes would be Christian Ministry, Bible and Theology, Veterinary Medicine, Animal Science, Latin, Fitness and Strength, and Discussion. In Christian Ministry, we would study how to spread the gospel and share the word of God through evangelical and ministerial positions. In Bible and Theology, we would study the Bible from beginning to end, as well as using theology to get a better understanding of life in Biblical times. In Veterinary Medicine, we would study how to be a Veterinarian in ways such as: examining animals, prescribing medicine, performing surgery, and learning how to run an animal clinic. In Animal Science, we would learn about different household pets and their systems by dissecting, examining, and researching them. In Latin, we would learn the Latin language and the history of it as well. In Fitness and Strength, we would work out in a weight room, play team and individual sports, and condition. Lastly, in Discussion, we would simply learn through discussing new and previous topics that could impact society. We would learn about new things through our peers, with a teacher there to keep us on track and to give us insights on the topic to enhance our knowledge and positions. These classes would be very different than my current classes, not only in the subjects to study, but in the way they are taught and the teachers. I like my teachers to teach, not just hand out notes and tell us to memorize them. I like my teachers to know all kinds of information about the subject so that when I ask questions because I am intrigued, they can fill me with information that I wouldn't know otherwise. I like discussing things that I learn, which is why I think I’d enjoy a discussion class. My “perfect school” may not be perfect, but it would provide a fun and enlightening high school experience.
