[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Do people really want kids to start specializing that much this early? Very few kids are mature enough or well-rounded enough in core subjects in 8th grade to know they want to study health care or government as their specialized education niche from that point forward. How does such a program really work? This is something that turns many people off with STEM high schools (I entered college as a math major and came out with dual degrees in computer science and philosophy and then went to law school). Is there such a thing as too much specialization too early?[/quote] Other countries seem to do a good job of this, but America really struggles. On the other hand, as long as the Core academic program is solid, the kids should still have the flexibility to pursue other avenues upon graduation.[/quote]
