[quote=Anonymous]Some kids are never going to be academic stars. LD, ADHD, interest lots of issues. If you read biographies of famous explorers most were terrible at school. It might be worth saying alright you are not going to college, what are you going to do and finding a high school that does that type of work training. In this area it is hard because so many of those programs have been eliminated and there is so much emphasis on college but we may be loosing a lot of smart kids that may be able to do socially constructive things because we were successful at school. I say this as a parent of an ADHD kid who hates school and our focus here on out is on how to make sure she does not have a desk job. [/quote]
