Not necessarily. But the system as it stands is not optimized for an enriching education tailored to individual abilities and weaknesses. The education system here in the u.s. is based on taking care of the average student, providing extra services (of questionable quality) to students with disabilities, and shortchanging exceptional students. No account in class scheduling is taken for the unique circadian/sleep needs of teens. The whole system is based on old people with industrial revolution mentalities handing down mandates for the youth and how they should be treated with no objective feedback on results. Secondary edu in the u.s. runs on the prisoner/warden, manager/factory worker paradigm.
