The high school and college kids that work at our clinic did not even know what "conjugating verbs" or "diagramming sentences" MEANS. Well, one of them did and three of them didn't. Some of these kids are/were honors students. I was flabbergasted by the whole conversation. It started when I said something about a word being past perfect tense, and the kid had never heard of that either. This is particularly scary since I'm a product of Louisiana public schools.
