[quote=Anonymous]What also has drastically changed at the secondary level is the vast reduction in the numbers of junior high and high school students who are in the juvenile justice system and continuation high schools. It used to be the really challenging kids were incarcerated and then when released were sent to continuation school not a neighborhood high school. Or when students were fighting too much, caught using drugs, cussing out teachers, etc. they went to continuation high schools.

Now it is so much more challenging in the high schools with the number of students no longer incarcerated. I can see both sides of the issue, it is good but there aren't structured programs for some of these kids who are out of control and their parents can't control them. Administrators and counselors are spending so much time on these kids. And students who might not misbehave because of the consequences see really out of control kids who don't get in trouble in their classes and in school so they sometimes go along with the misbehavior.

I am surprised this doesn't get discussed more. [/quote]
