How do I change win 8 to classic view. See this for some options... http://www.infoworld.com/d/microsoft-windows/9-windows-start-menus-windows-8-208963. I have tested both Classic Shell and Start8. Of the two I like Start8 the best.
I can't speak for other schools, but my middle school (7-8th grade, in silicon valley) was split into core subjects and electives, with the core subjects being: english, history (world, then U.S.), science, math (through algebra I), and P.E./Health.
Middle schools, or junior high schools, are schools that span grades 7, 8, and sometimes 5, 6 and 9, which straddle primary and secondary education. Upon arrival in middle school or junior high school, students begin to enroll in class schedules where they take classes from several teachers in a given day.
