[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Budget cuts are coming. If not right away, then in one year. MCPS wastes so much money trying to keep kids in school who don’t have the interest and/or ability to learn. Some high schools are full of kids hanging out in the hallways and refusing to go to class but it is compulsory for them to be there. They eventually graduate with a HS certificate because the staff gets sick of them and move them along. Teachers pass these students because of pressure from administrators and because no one wants another year of the same charade. Why force older teenagers to stay in school. It would save money and resources to reduce the compulsory age to be in school to age 16 rather than 18. Thoughts? [/quote] Another option for you is to move to county where there is no compulsory schooling.[/quote]
