[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]B students might be fine but they should think about paths other than college. c students should go to certification programs. [/quote] I have never met someone in real life that thinks B students are not college bound. Are you from another country that tracks kids into college/no college during high school?[/quote] Are you a parent? It's not like when we were in school. They give out A's like candy now. There's a whole wide world out there and college degrees aren't going to be as required as they were for Genx and millienials. C students are basically the lowest grades. They aren't failing kids anymore. I'm American and I think we should have more tracks for kids. More tracks that show them good jobs that don't require student loans and student debt. Instead we just have college educated barristas with student loan debt.[/quote] We definately need to encourage the services tracks---HVAC/Plumbing/Auto Mechanics/etc. But we do. NOT need to put kids on those tracks in MS/HS because of "bad grades" or not doing well on a standardized test. [/quote] HS is actually a great time to track (some) kids into trades. Imagine letting the ones who KNOW they want to enter a trade take welding classes at the local CC instead of forcing chemistry and Brit Lit on them.[/quote]
