Not everyone in school plans to go to college. If you look around, you'll see that there are students who don't really take their education serious. Quite frankly, they don't take many things serious. Those students can become a major distraction during class, and those same students get placed in a college required class. Not only do they frustrate and stress the teacher, but they also effect the students' study/ focus habits. Then I asked myself, "What do we really learn in school?" We learn the specific requirements a person needs to become successful, is my main belief. I also believe that there should be classes where we learn how to change a tire or other necessities there are in life. Not have everyone take math analysis or history where they're never going to use that knowledge in their job. There should be a better division from students who want a good education and those who refuse to listen.
Back in 2011, middle school combined 8th graders with 7th graders in classes. My cousin and brother experienced those moments and I asked them how it was. The responses were completely different. My brother absolutely hated it because he claimed that many 8th graders messed around in class and became a distraction. He also said that eventually the 7th graders became class clowns to and next thing you know half the class doesn't listen. My cousin loved being with the 8th graders. She personally didn't take school that serious, and especially at that grade and age. She claimed that it was very funny and that it was one of the best times in her school life. In some cases, the 7th graders would start the problem, but it was mostly 8th graders who started the base of the problem.
This same problem exists today. It doesn't matter what grade or age students are in, there's always that individual or group of students who don't take school serious and distract those who do take it serious. My bottom line or last thought is that there should be separation between the 2 types of students and there should be specific courses for each person could take that could benefit their own selves.
