(Sorry in advance for any formatting issues, I'm new to posting here) Hello! I'm a student at a US public high school, and really hate their over-dependence on Google. I'm curious of how to escape/minimize Google in my education. Any advice you can share is appreciated.

I understand the convenience, but I really can't agree with their privacy policy. "We collect GPS info on an opt-out basis" no thanks.
