A complete waste of time.
A system for education that still uses methods from the Industrial Revolution to make hard-working, mindless, apparatchiks (People with no independent thoughts). Teaches information that at least 80% of them will never be used. Stays in the past and tortures students by making them work harder than an adult who works part-time, by spending their mornings for no practical reason and giving them more work for the afternoon so they get ready for the next, boring day.
The old people who rule schools think in the past and are afraid of computers. They don't really allow fun, they want every student to be successful in selected subjects that won't help them with life and are okay with seeing people lose the best years of their life. The teachers, on the other hand, some of them hope for a better future and do nothing to change it, others are proud of leading youngsters to nowhere, and other exceptions like to help students have fun and enjoy life while learning the useless preset things they were assigned to teach.
School also doesn't help children find their passion. In fact, as the school was made almost 300 years ago, without really wanting to do so, prevents them from being original and doing what they love. As school wants us to remember what useless thing we should have learned during the morning, it prevents us from doing freely what makes them happy and calm.

Helium (from Greek: ἥλιος, romanized: Helios, lit. 'Sun') is a chemical element with the symbol He and atomic number 2. It is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, non-toxic, inert, monatomic gas, the first in the noble gas group in the periodic table.

It is also widely known for its effect on a person's voice, it changes the tinder and not the pitch. The effect is very similar to Hydrogen when inhaled, and you can try it yourselves! - just don't inhale too much and be in an environment where fire or electricity is involved.
