[quote=Anonymous]I think it is a shame that young teens are so career-oriented that they can't explore the Arts or practical/fun skills. My kid did take Yoga for PE credits once. And I wanted her to take the school's Financial Literacy offering (to learn about credit worthiness, for example, and student loans and buying a car). Unfortunately, she was steered away from it since the counselor thought she was "too smart.." Apparently, they perceive that class as a way for math-challenged kids to meet the graduation requirement. That is wrong, don't you think? Practical skills come in handy in life.[/quote]
