I suppose if they want to be “community activists”, they will go to the front of the line.
Personally, I do not like the arrangement whereby the schools are run by the CITY and overseen by the MAYOR. This just feels wrong to me. An independent and elected school board (while still susceptible to much corruption or dangerous indoctrination syndrome issues), is at least separate from the city government.
The mayor should not be setting the graduation requirements, IMHO.

“But it should all be within the school itself.”
Exactly.

Given this is mayor toe shoes, the Man’s Country bath house member, the probable situation is this is nothing but a typo.
Rhambo wants to see their ‘packages’, not their ‘plans’.

"The latest five-year graduation rate is 73.5 percent, CPS said. The rate has been rising steadily over the past five years, according to district figures, and in 2014-15 was 69.9 percent."Maybe a 73.5% rate is much too high, and costs Chicago grant money, and so they need to bring it down.

Dear Mr. Mayor:
My plan is to get a large group of graduates together, tar and feather you and ride your ass out of town on a rail.

Kids who are inclined to go to school will still go. Those with no interest will go through whatever hoops they have to go through, then stop. More likely those with no interest will just drop out of HS. Why go if they're not going to give you a diploma anyway?

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Exceptions are available in certain cases, such as in the case of illegal immigrant student or those who are in jail.
Sure. Punish the citizens and achievers and reward illegal activity.

He thinks we should be working and paying taxes so the ‘state’ takes care of our children. From cradle to grave. The ‘state’ owns our children in their eyes.
