[quote=Anonymous] I am a high school teacher (with 2 kids in HS). At my hs about 20% of kids are striver/in all AP/studying for SAT, about 15% already know they won't be going to college and just want to graduate, and the other 65% are just like OP’s kid. They hang out with friends, play sports, and could really care less about school. That does not mean college is not for them If you're in MD, schools like Goucher, BCC, Hood, Salisbury and even Towson will take a kid like this. They may even end up coasting through college like they did high school, but a majority of them that I see after college are all well adjusted, happy young people. They may not be doctors or in finance, but they're solidly employed and productive members of society. Show your kids some love and that you trust them just as they are.[/quote]
