[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People scoff at the European and Asian styles of schooling where the bottom 1/3 go to trade school and middle 1/3 go to college and the top 1/3 go to university The exact same thing happens here according to income/school district The bottom 1/3 would do much better going to a trade school vs a traditional high school[/quote] I don't want a system that assumes that kids who couldn't/didn't do well in HS for one reason or another must go to vocational school. I think one of the best things about this country is that even if you f*d up in HS you can go to community college, and then to a 4 yr univ. I don't think there is anything wrong with a vocational track if that is what one chooses, but I don't think it should be the only path available to someone who didn't do well in HS. [/quote] PP here.. and I'm Asian, married to a European, who agrees with me.[/quote]
