How would you reinvent high school curriculum?

My top picks:
• add personal finance & taxation course
• change English into critical thinking, source verification, and storytelling
• require hands-on entrepreneurship project to graduate a la science fair

What else?

pay kids to learn, with rewards metered by the delta of concept acquisition, offering higher returns for the more basic or core concepts.

This way kids would be able to contract with teachers that are the best at teaching them.

The only problem is externality pricing.

You want to offer higher returns for more basic concepts because as you get closer to the edges of a field your value in the regular economy is already pretty high, so there are other sources of reward near at hand.

Plus, this would teach personal economics "for free"
