Is that true? Do high schools teach any poetry anymore, I wonder? Perhaps only contemporary poetry? I have no idea.
I'm an older millennial and we still read "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" in high school. I don't remember any glosses, so either they weren't there or they didn't stick in my memory.
"Kubla Khan" made a huge impression on me as a preteen.
