[quote=jameswenn] . . . I’ve talked to to other parents at the schools and i’m not alone. We all seem to have this irrational fear of the public school system as well as a need to control our children’s environment.[/quote]
jameswenn, believe it or not, every … single … public … HS in SD County graduates hundreds of seniors every year, the majority going on to UC, CSU, private and out-of-state universities. A minority will begin college in their local community college campuses (a higher percentage of students may first be enrolling in CC since CA public college fees have risen so much in recent years).
The entire function of a public HS in CA is to ensure students fulfill the requirements for graduation and the A-G requirements for getting accepted into a CA public college. EVERY parent and student in EVERY public HS has the SAME goal. The teaching standards are ALL the SAME in EVERY CA HS. It’s the law!
Parents overtly impose their OWN irrational fears on their students when they seek to control every facet of their student’s environment and existence, IMHO.
