Young people don't even know who fought WWII. Most don't know about 9-11

I have no idea what is taught in schools today. I know the end product (the graduate) has very little knowledge of history, grammar, simple math, etc. It's really sad how the system has taken over the corricular at all levels of education. I'm 85 years old and I am always amazed at how little students know today.
