when you go deeper into the seeding of public education, the funding, directives and purposes were clearly stated.... and something you very much picked up on. Some I'd add:
• How to collaborate and not just compete
• What your true abilities and gifts/authenticity are.
• Mindfulness, how to self reflect
• How to take care of your physical self, emotional self and mental healths
• What other historical narratives exist beyond the winners who got to write the books
• How one company- Piersons not only writes the books globally but also the exams and the review systems for employees.
• Taxes. How they work and where they go.
• Cultural perspectives
• How to connect cross generationally- we are pigeon holed
• Different intelligences- (Book multiple intelligences is great)
• Understanding legal structures
• Understanding business structures
• Learning to ask questions in the first place.
• Learning plants, where things come from, how it's all connected.
• Resilience on all levels
We homeschool. It's hard, it's a lot of responsibilities, It takes time (ironically the boys learn in 1 hour what schools say they teach in 7) We may choose to go into schooling for structural support and so the boys have an empathetic framework of how 99% of the populations grows up. But i'm glad they have the base of homeschooling, freedom and knowing who they are as a frame of reference.

Great list. Your boys will learn to exercise intelligence rather than put it to sleep.
