That was part of my hubby's statement. Our local Community College will allow 10th graders to attend. Our Charter School ends in 9th grade. He says they will not be mature enough to go to college.

College courses and/or degrees can be had through distance learning or "testing out."

Speaking from experience, your hubby's contention is falacious. Try taking a class or two with these more "mature" post highschool students, and you will see what I mean in the starkest of terms. If anything, their increased arrogance and newly emancipated standing makes them LESS prone to appreciate instruction, not more.
