They should award them:
"HIGH SCHOOL ATTENDANCE CERTIFICATES"
Not:
"HIGH SCHOOL COMPLETION DIPLOMAS"
Judges don't belong in this area, period. My blood is boiling.
And just think of the lawyer fees that the taxpayers will have to pay.
Sheesh. So what's the point in having a diploma if it means absolutely nothing?
We all get a medal.
We are ALL winners, right?
We waste untold billions sending these idiots on to college where reality sets in, and they drop out in the first year.
But we preserve their 'self-esteem' while they are in high school !
Somebody will have to pick the lettuce when we kick the illegals out.
BUMP
This reminds me of the Florida judge who ruled that the state's (extremely limited) voucher program was unconstitutional because it allowed some students an alternative to the state's "equal" schools.
Why anyone supports government education is beyond me.
" . . . plaintiffs who claimed the exam is discriminatory because California failed to provide an equal education to every student."
After TWELVE years of schooling, it is concluded that not every student is getting an equal education?
