[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So then why are students only taking one or two classes senior year? I think the graduation requirement should be that they have a full schedule (including work release)[/quote]

Another idiot heard from.  Work release is for prison.  High school isn't prison.

If the kid has fulfilled the requirements, then they shouldn't need to be at school.  Full stop.   You don't need to know or worry about what students who have completed the requirements do on their own time.  It's none of your business.

Or maybe we can all work this way.  When you've done what your boss assigned you for the day, I'll follow you around making up extra tasks just to make sure you put in a full day.  Sound good?[/quote]
You are correct - this actually is how real world work/job is done.  You get paid to work a full day - you don’t stop at 2pm if you are finished with a task.  You ask for. More responsibility and get promoted.  [/quote]

No, actually I pay my employees to get the job done, not to fill their chairs.  Usually, it takes longer than a full day, but if they knock out everything on their plate at 2:00 on a Friday, I don't need to see them until Monday.  In my experience, that's how professional adults work.
