[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. Everyone needs k-12. But it doesnt have to be college track for everyone. There is a lot of practical knowledge (like taxes and how govt works) that we need for people to know. All these people will be able to vote for people and policies, they need to know what they are choosing. [/quote] Unpopular opinion but as a HS teacher I actually agree. My students roam the hall aimlessly. They pass eventually because of terrible grading and attendance policies but aren't learning anything. They desperately need personal finance and life skills, soft job skills and a trade. They're stuck in a cycle of poverty with no way out, and algebra and the Great Gatsby isn't going to help if they're not motivated.[/quote] To clarify, I agree with the post I quoted, not OP. [/quote] You mean you agree with OP and not the post you quoted?[/quote]
