[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 690939, member: 4040"] In our district, the emphasis on everyone being ready to attend a four-year state university is shifting slowly. I fought with Miss KT's counselor for four years over graduation requirements. I obsessively read every handout that came home, so I knew that there were three sets of requirements - state requirements, for a four-year state college, and for a four-year state university. Miss KT graduated on state requirements, not district requirements. She would never have made it through four years of math and four years of science. She can't figure tax or percentage off. Our district is finally increasing their Voc Ed courses, and they're practical things. Construction, careers with children, welding, fire fighting, vet technology, medical careers, music technology...and one of the high schools has a working farm. Appropriate since we're agriculture based around here. [/QUOTE]
