What subject(s) did your school board make mandatory to take, but think it was a complete waste of time?

@DeWayfarer Our religious ed teacher reminded me of some bitter old nun.

@HoeBag This was just one year in the sixties that they tried it. Until it was finally considered unconstitutional to force religion in public schools.
They had separate trailers for it on the school property. I never even seen the inside of those trailers.

@DeWayfarer hmm, well for us it was optional to take it. I did just because otherwise it meant sitting in class with the regular teacher. It was only 4th and 5th grade, mid 1980's.
We*rd thing though is that ours was also in some trailer that sat on the edge of the school property. I wonder what kind of law or policy caused that?

@HoeBag Likely a local ordinance. The classrooms had to be used for regular classes no matter what.

@DeWayfarer oh yeah I looked that up. Separation of church and state and circumventing some constitutional thing.
BTW, the inside of those is basically just a couple rows of desks like in a class, kind of cramped but nothing special anyways.
In our classes, it was basically bible stories without the gru3some parts nor the "h3llfire d4mnation".
