Why?

 

[Chill1]

I hate the schools around here. So do my kids.

 

[kingvjack]

Why?

Have you ever noticed that no matter wheryou go.... Everyone thinks their education system is the worst when in all actuality its just the surrounding people who take pride in their ignorance?

Its what you make of it. I have never heard of a school that has never had a good portion of it's students go on to higher education. I just never understood, even the studenst at my high school, that had it in their heads that my high school sucked so there was no point in applying yourself. Geez...I was a C student at best, and I was one of the VERY few that actually graduated college. Most of the "a" students that I knew in high school dropped out of college and are working construction jobs and the like.

I dunno. Seems that I see folks placing too much blame on the school for their own demise. Life is what you make of it. Period.
