actually yeah … https://www.pta.org/ can give you laws you can follow to integrate parents into the curriculum … my mother was president of PTA back 30 years ago when I was in high school … she did fund raising we sold a lot of candy bars i remember stealing from the boxes … but if you want 100% involvement in the childs education you want to formalize that with a PTA group of parents that oversees curriculum in their own right like field trips and choosing guest speakers … GATE , ODYSSEY OF THE MIND, THESPIAN STATE CONFERENCE, YOUNG AMERICANS and INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL you want parents involved in everything extra curricular … i’d say in this new academic economy where eternal learning is a new reality with the internet you don’t have to cram everything in you could have an academic portal at NCH that keeps students learning after graduation like a khan academy but NCH … please don’t rush the curriculum give it room to breath high school doesn’t really prepare you for college anyways not really not in my experience … have a teacher gift giving program … expand gym class hours to 2 hours a day and really just give the kids an organic experience

you can vibe code a piece of software for a programmer but just using google docs and describing the software you want him to build be detailed like base44 isn’t the only paradigm for vibe coding writing a good problem statement and thesis for a programmer to explain what you want from him is better vibe coding i think … i did this once for a piece of software i want to sell files with but if you wanted a piece of software to keep track of students after graduating or dropping out and to keep them engaged in each others lives to the extent thats necessary and wanted i find high school is a tight bond thats lost in time mostly but a piece of software that supplies post high school education like that book you get at college graduation that explains life to you like keeps you up to date on sales on jelly at krogers or keeps you up to date on jack’s latest writing or keeps you up to date on the next school dance everyone is invited to things like that or more a major brain storming session would do well to decide in vibe coding what you want and then format the document and slide it to lightborne downtown to point you in the right direction
