Greetings young Izzy,
I enjoyed reading your introduction. If you would allow me I would like to offer you one piece of advice, being that you are in what I would still call your "formative years."
Question everything and do your own research.
The education system in the U.S. leaves out quite a lot of information that the powers in the government don't want you to know so it is not taught in schools. The tedious repetitive tasks you mention are designed to keep you busy, not to teach you.
Explore on your own the history of education in the U.S., the department of education, and the foundations that created the education system for starters. You will be surprised at what you will discover and you will see that my advice may be the most valuable thing you learn in your high school years.
Until next time,
@sultnpapper
I will certainly keep that in mind! Thanks for your support and advice. Seeya, @sultnpapper
