From a Gannett news story Saturday:
Leslie Jacobs, a member of the High School Redesign
Commission who laid out the program Friday for more than
700 public school principals, said some people might think
that by making it tougher to graduate, more students will
drop out. However, she said, many of the students who drop
out could perform but said they were not challenged and
were bored by their classes.
When the state last increased student requirements in
1999, the dropout level went down, she said. The rate is
again on the rise, but an examination of the dropouts'
test scores showed it wasn't because they couldn't learn
the material.
"The No. 1 reason was because the classes were not
interesting," she said.
Uh, huh.
