The Hypocrisy of the Agoura High School Freshman Seminar Department
The Issue
Most freshman students at Agoura High School can make an agreement that the new freshman seminar course is completely and utterly useless. Freshman seminar is making students stressed and overwhelmed because of the absolutely ridiculous projects, assignments, and so-called "education", while students should be prepared by the teacher, for the ongoing years of school and furthermore education.
"Freshman Seminar was created to defuse students' hostility and frustration and expose them to the social and academic skills to be successful in high school." - tdschools.org
"The freshman seminar is a way to get students used to the pressure of college life and the demanding nature of many classes." - campusexplorer.com
"The curriculum targets teaching, practicing and reinforcing organizational and self-advocacy skills, termed 'academic self-management'." - pbis.org
As for most of the freshman students at Agoura High School who can strongly agree, the freshman seminar curriculum should be removed, or significantly changed.
