Many school systems allow you to start taking courses in community college in your junior or senior year.

This has two benefits: getting the kids used to college while still living at home, and accumulating transferable credits.

Skip high school altogether, go straight to Community College.

Here’s my modest proposal for education reform.

We have been discussing ways to fast track kids through high school to avoid the liberal agenda and other idiocies:

I’ve taught at top private and public universities and colleges, as well as a large community college. The smartest students at the community college were every bit as smart and industrious as those at the four year colleges. The biggest problem I have witnessed with community colleges - a problem also true for the four year colleges - is the politically-focused breed of administrators and professors no longing offering majors and courses that are erudite or focused on Western Civilization and substituting “woke” course, with titles that include words like “gender,” “color,” “social justice,” etc. This makes it difficult, if not impossible for students doing the community college route from getting exposed to a lot of interesting majors and fields of study that the politicized administrators have made out of reach, just about impossible as majors, for a lot of students.
