Just because learning is serious does not mean it has to be without fun or excitement.
I'm retired now but during my working life, including my time in the military, I felt a day that I didn't learn something new was a day of wasted time. Now if I went through life in a serious manner looking to learn something I would have lead a very boring life. I learned things in many different ways; some in very funny ways , some in more serious ways but always while I was enjoying the work that I was doing.
In school it can be the same way. Sure there are classes where the teacher(s) may not be the best at what they do, or more strict in how they run their classroom; they are not the fun classes. Then there are the teacher(s) who are very good at what they do and very light in how they run their classroom. Their presentation style can be almost whimsical. The whimsical, light handed teacher(s) is still making their point in teaching their subjects. We all enjoy being in the classroom of the more whimsical light handed teacher and we learn more almost without knowing it.
Get a good education is important and it is something that should be taken seriously. Their is nothing that says that while you are getting your education and doing a good and serious job of it that you cannot also have a good time doing so.
Get all that you can out of you schooling. Enjoy your time in school and you will learn more.

Who says learning can never be fun, or that fun can never involve learning? Did you ever watch Bill Nye the Science Guy or do those activities where you do fun experiments and learn at the same time? I was blessed to have some awesome teachers growing up. In fourth grade, we made robots out of legos. Robots. out. of. legos. And in my high school chemistry class, we crushed Peeps marshmallows in pressurized chambers and made weirdly colored sparks and flames with shavings of different elements. We also made things explode a lot in that class (usually on purpose).
If a student is actually interested in a subject and enjoys class at least some of the time, they are going to do so much better than a student who doesn't care and hates school. It's common sense really, but budget problems and crappy teachers often result in boring classes. But just because some classes suck doesn't mean they all do.

Having fun while learning can make time go by faster and you are not bored just sitting and listening to the teacher talk .... I actually found it easier to remember things when we did fun actvities in school because when I was having fun I paid attention and didnt daydream :)
