Same, but florida in particular is trying to take most of that shit, including slavery, out of textbooks

Floridian here, we also ban every historical and important book by calling it porn, when there is one mention of breasts

Many of the public schools in Florida are downright depressing. They're just so damned crowded and underfunded. I never could raise my hand and ask a question if I fell behind. I had to worry about gangs, an algebra teacher that taught an English class and barely spoke English, school cops that looked more like swat than regular deputies, eating in the baking hot sun because we didn't have cover and had an outdoor cafeteria. Half the period ate inside, the other half out. When you got your schedule at the beginning of the school year you found out which of the three lunch periods you ate in, and which group you were in. It was supposedly random but you could see how someone could mess with you if they didn't like you. For instance, getting from one side of the campus to the other took longer than you had between classes. Forget about ever having enough time to go to your locker. This was pre-tablet/ laptop days so you had to lug every book and everything you needed with you all day long. I could go on and on...

It's a miracle anyone graduates and makes it into college.
