Is Graduating From High School Obsolete?

It would seem so, in New Hampshire at least, where officials are now allowing students who pass a state test to go straight from 10th grade to community college or vocational school.

Students who want a four-year college degree would have to stay in high school until the traditional graduation age.

Apparently, this will save New Hampshire a lot of money on education.

No word on what students won't be learning.

Thoughts?

Students used to leave school at much younger ages. Nothing wrong with it. It's far better to have a student move on to a vocational school or community college than spend their time in school hating every minute of it and making everyona around them miserable.
