[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh please. I bet you'll be pissed when junior flunks college classes because he chose not to go.[/quote] But there are lots of kids who don’t go to college classes who can get A’s. Just depends on the place and class. This is the point. Different kids do well in different environments. Attendance may matter for some and not others. What seems to be happening in HS’s is that students who are forced to be there so they don’t commit crimes are just disruptive. Teachers don’t actually want those kids there, and students who want to learn (or simply want a pleasant environment) don’t want them there. Kids who are successful don’t want to be around the disruptive kids don’t come. Teachers don’t care if they are there or not. They’d probably prefer they not be there bc they have to spend all of their time with the middle to low achieving kids. Solution seems to be just be fine with low and high performing kids just not going.[/quote]
