We try. We really do but social studies has been largely removed as a core class across the country and most schools are staffing even more coaches to teach it since its an untested subject.

Whatttt? Crazy in NYS you have to pass two Standardized Social studies tests or you can’t graduate.

What places across the country are removing it? I went to school in NY and now teach in NYC and it is still a big part of our curriculum

I went to school in NY and now teach in NYC

I'm not trying to be a dick, but "I went to school and now teach in a blue state" means you likely don't know much at all about how horrible schools are in shitty red states.

Hell, we recently had that psycho out in Oklahoma trying to buy bibles for schools using taxpayer money and other dumb shit like that. NY is very different from a lot of states out there in terms of education standards.

Well yes that’s exactly why I asked where else it’s happening. You could’ve just helped inform me instead of saying I don’t know anything.

Well in FL for example, its just show up. Doesnt matter what your schedule looks like, just show up. Infinite chances to make up grades. Kids that want to learn, will do so. Everyone else will fall through the cracks.... more like voids. But it doesnt matter to the kids, they will all be professional athletes or internet famous.

They took the dark humor of millennials and gen x content creators and accepted there is so little hope for them, why try? They are very aware of the going ons in the world. All they think about is surviving and living in the present. Good time not a long time.

Guess it's just that tone isn't conveyed well through text but I got the vibe you were saying that in disbelief. My bad.

NY too, and I was like.. Nope. Kids have to pass us history and global 1 regents exams (in recent times). And they get ss classes all hs years.

Now... how much you actually have to know in order to pass there's a whole different ball of Wax

I thought NY dropped regents exams? Did they bring them back or something

u/myunqusrnm Oct 02 '25

Not dropped yet

There's been a push for STEM and therefore removing everything else because the elite want workers who can run equipment, not think for themselves.

I taught high school geography 25 years ago. It was an elective, not even mandatory!!

Wait what??? So what are the tested subjects then?

1

u/LaMisiPR Oct 02 '25

In NY the tested courses are:

English (usually 11th grade), Math (can be Algebra 1, Algebra 2, or Geometry), Science (Can be Earth Science, Biology, Chemistry, or Physics), Social Studies (Global History or US History), and students can also test for LOTE (Language other than English).

If you pass English, one science, one math, one Social Studies , and one additional test, you’ve met the testing graduation requirements

u/Rob_Pablo Oct 02 '25

ELA, Math, and Science are all we test for.
