Yes. This is a solid idea.

I can see both the good and the bad in this.

Loved to have had that option. High School was a 4 year stretch of boredom and rehashing with the exception of auto mechanics class.

Absolutely. Might as well go all out and remove the mandatory USELESS curriculum in university which are irrelevant. I had to waste my time with Literature just to get on to my majors in Business Management.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I have a better idea.

Any child of any age should be permitted to take the GED. If they pass they should be awarded a **regular** and official diploma from their local government school.

Every year a bill that would allow any child of any age to take the GED is introduced in our legislature. Every year the teachers unions lobbies like mad to see it is defeated.

I like it too. I hated high school so much that I would have tried to test out in eighth grade if anyone would have let me.
