Recently I've been thinking really hard about how outdated the school system is & what it's doing for me & the other students as well.

I'm in 10th grade and attend a public high school in Georgia, recently I've found myself questioning why i'm sitting in a class room wasting valuable time while I could be gaining REAL knowledge & experience elsewhere. Not only that but everytime I step foot in that school I'm surrounded by people living a scripted lifestyle who just don't understand.
It's really opened my eyes tho because I realize that this path im on just genuinely isn't meant for most of the people there, which is good for me because I know I don't wanna live like "most people". Im honestly just reading books while im there and my teachers hate it lol.
I've had multiple conversations with my parents & they definitely seem to be okay with doing homeschool but I think they're a little hesitant to let me go all in on my enterpernial ventures because I haven't had any feedback from the marketmind YET, I took the advice from the last thread I posted & decided to refocus on a local lead agency where I will build lead generating websites for local companies & upsell Automated workflows using Apps like loveable, GoHighLevel & other AI tools that will save these local businesses time & money. No matter what happens I've decided to stick with this and go all in , even if this doesn't generate 10k/Month eventually, It will give me the skills & knowledge to do so later. But the only problem is that school is limiting my time & honestly holding me back from growing even faster, I think an environment change might be the best thing I can do right now. Id appreciate any feedback that will steer me in the best direction.
