If I were you I would use the resources your school provides to learn more useful day to day things you will need to know in adulthood. Before you get to adulthood. School isn't there to really teach you useful things, it is to teach you the basics, thought correction and help you decide to pick a career and interests before you get into college. But mostly it is thought correctness.
Yeah it did. It's not really the stuff you learn that benefits you in the long run (although it is generally good to be informed) it's the process of learning that gets you ready for the world. You can develop critical thought so that you can make good decisions and smart decisions.

You don't only learn stuff and things, you'll also subconsciously learn techniques that help you during life.

To teach you how to think, how to learn, how to analyze. And they have no idea yet which bits you might find useful, so there's a shotgun approach, trying to find some part that fits and suits each pupil.

@firefall: They don't teach those things anymore, Most teachers just toss on a movie each class and ignore the students. That is at least how it was in my high school.

Don't worry, you'll just have to repeat most of that once you get to college

It might become useful if you're ever the President of the USA. Things like the civil war and stuff.

School is mostly training you to get up every morning to go to a job you hate for 30 years so you can buy a bunch of stuff you don't need.
