I learnt most in school (in austria tho, american schools have been defunded so hard its a miracle the US hasn’t fallen into pieces … yet), if i had to pin it down mostly in language classes (German, English) because of the literature i was exposed to and the discussions we had about current events, philosophy because its philosophy and art classes because of the teacher and interpretations of art pieces in context of the time they were created. Also my biology teacher who taught us to keep an open mind and a lot about the scientific method.

The important part were the teachers, who didn’t just let us memorize stuff, but encouraged us to ask questions.
