That is clearly true. But pretend laws and the corruption to get around them is in our blood in Chicago.
This is too easy. Just say I want to be a community organizer.
Can’t have that! We, yes I am one, are traitors to the feminist cause. Our numbers cannot be allowed to increase.
How about a voluntary questionnaire instead?
1. What would you like to do as a career?
2. What do you need to do to accomplish that goal?
3. What obstacles do you face?
4. How can you overcome those obstacles?
Far more helpful and liberating.
You nailed it! :)
Or maybe...
Q: What is your plan, Little Johnny? (Johnny is valedictorian)
A: “Well, I’m going to be the first human to land on Mars.”
Q: Don’t be so stupid! Give me something more realistic to put down.
A: “I’se wanna be a big dope pusher and run a string of Ho’s”
The next step is then for government to tell you which job you will have after graduation.
Doing the Mussolini Dance.

Though Rahm’s heart is in the right place, his head is up his tu-tu..............
Actually, I think the jerk is right on this one. But it’s only because he and his ilk have undermined the public education system for generations now.
Kids have to think of a future, and they’re never told to do that...in fact, poor people do it less than anybody else, because while in the US there is no limit to your aspirations based on your class, race or anything else, in their minds there is a limit. They want to stay stuck in the ghetto or in the double wide in the woods because they don’t know anything else and they’re scared and there’s a lot of downward pressure (both poor blacks and poor whites are heavy TV watchers) so they don’t even think their kids can move beyond being on welfare, in and out of jail, having kids out of wedlock and expecting the state to be daddy, etc.
Give them a positive plan for the future. And they won’t do it unless they have to, unfortunately.
This is probably the first time in my life I have ever agreed with Emanuel.
Can we withhold his breath til he turns honest ? Yeh, I know what it’ll be tough on him ....for a short time tho,,,,
It is very hard for a proven crack-pot to rise above being a crack-pot.
Won't disagree with that; however, let me take the other side of the larger issue.
Most of us have no idea of what it must be like to live in certain parts of Chicago's culture. Most of those "kids", especially those who lack effective parenting, are moved through the system like cattle are moved through the stockyards. They have little or no idea of the opportunities that await them, or of the realities they face.
In fact, I would recommend that each student be required to meet with their counselor during the freshman year for the express purpose of start work on a four-year plan ("mission statement"). Annual reviews and applicable adjustments would also keep the counselors accountable in a meaningful way for the student's accomplishments.
Chicago thugs: Hey yo’ Mayor$hit, let me ‘splain sumpin’ to ya’...I plan on puttin’ a slug ‘tween yo’ eyes if’n you don’t give me dat piece o’ paper!
{;^)
This is crazy. I’d be willing to wager that this ridiculous scheme will cause the dropout rate to increase.
Actually, it may not be a bad idea for kids to have to write an essay or put together some other presentation on what their plans for the future are. It will make them think about it and it can be graded. But it should all be within the school itself.
Too funny.......
Curious to know what percent of students [enrolled as frosh] actually graduate from HS in Chicago?
I would venture to guess that these kids are functionally illiterate, and unable to *write* a plan.
This will be decried as raciss.
So Rahmiekins will have no more than a dozen *plans* to review. Meh.
I couldn’t agree more, that’s what high school counselors are there for.
Mayors of cities are not there to deny diplomas to students.
