so I was reading the yahoo news and this came across my attention. NH plans on making it easier for kids who are "ready" to graduate high school after tenth grade by passing numerous examinations. so I wondered how this would fit in with the Tracking article. Would this new rule benefit "lower ability" students, give them even more of a disadvantage, and on the flip side, how will this effect higher ability students? Which one would benefit from this more... anyone have any thoughts on this?

Nice article Jackie! I am against letting these students graduate early. Both "high-ability" and "low-ability" students can benefit from completing all twelve grades.
Great article! I especially liked reading the teens opinions on voting. Very powerful. Sometimes we don't think they are watching, hearing, feeling the changes of our country, but they ARE.
