[quote=Anonymous]I think it's fine for her to choose them on her own. I went to a public junior high that had no requirements whatsoever and I always picked all of my classes without parental input- in fact, we were encouraged to do so. We also had no grades- only page-long evaluations. I still think this was the best educational experience I've ever had - junior high is the time to experiment and, with all of the adolescence challenges, why not give kids a chance to "find themselves" and take some of the academic pressure off?
