Kids are naturals at "On the Job Training". They can do the hands on while picking up the practical science that backs it up. I really don't see the logic of having students sit a desk for six hours a day following a fixed schedule of learning programs. There are a lot of bright kids that earn C, D, and even F's on their report cards. Their abilities and motivation aren't catered to.

Then the educators can not figure why the drop out rate is so high.

Sometimes I think that our educational system exist for the teachers and not the students.

No educators know why the drop out rate is so high, they just hope the suckers don't catch on. BTW, H.L. Mencken was a high school drop out, Thomas Edison only got a far as second grade and Bill Gates was kicked out of Harvard after his Freshman year.
