@lilnicky492 Perhaps. Even that won't solve the problem though, there are too many different personalities and learning styles to cater for everyone. On the job training similar to an apprenticeship is just one of the answers.
-
@kathyofrin So you mean Vocational education? So what you want is technical high schools which already exist in the US.

@lilnicky492 like the programs which used to be run by TAFE (in New South Wales, Australia) which provided kids the opportunity to have on the job training & gain tertiary qualifications during high school years. This gets them out of the classroom & gives them real world experience. These programs are severely underfunded & TAFE teachers are underpaid & underconditioned, which puts these programs at risk of termination. Last I heard, they were beginning to be phased out, which I think is sad.

@kathyofrin like what?

I knew a girl that ran away for a week (essentially only missing FIVE days of school). She returned to school and was embarrassed because all her classmates kept asking where she was. She decided she did not want to go to school anymore and her parents said "alright". She was 16. The parents can definitely be blamed in this instance. Job prospects are SO limited to people without high school diploma... what parent would agree to that?
-
Does this count the kids who get their GED? Or is this just drop outs in general?
-
I make half of that and I would explode in joy having 40,000$ I live in a country which is WAY more expensive than the US.
So I got no idea why they complain about it.
-
this one stoner guy in my class is thinking of dropping out... he seems really smart in history though.

newsflash: the school system does not suit everyone. some kids with all the family support in the world just don't enjoy school and don't see the point.
There needs to be other options for these kids to become qualified enugh to gain well paid employment and avoid becoming a statistic.

I've contemplated dropping out of school due to my parents telling me I'm a failure and i've never gotten below a B+ and i take AP classes. it's tough to stick it out when no one wants you there
