Here’s a thought, why did the school system take away all of our vocational programs faster than anything else they seem to set out to do? They carefully explain to everyone it was because of the insufficient funding and they can’t afford to take care of classes like culinary arts, media, and auto shops. The real problem is they have taken away everyday tasks in which high school students will need to have a basic understanding of and being prepared to step into normal society. The only solution is to create a profit turning system within the schools to supply enough money to keep the classes running smoothly.

If funding is such a problem within the school system then why don’t the students simply fund the system their selves? Make each student create projects which they will give to the district who will then turn around and create a profit fit enough to support the new system. There will be no money paid out to the high school students, but a grade given in order to pass the year. Freshman would take the newly integrated classes, which would bring in the most profit because they have such young spirit and are easily persuaded. The sophomores are the rebellious students, so we will make them work twice as much due to their behavior. Juniors all are starting to look at college, so deceive them into thinking universities are looking for the best income a student can make for their school. Those seniors are the laziest kids in the schools, so in order to make them work the schools will simply tell them if you don’t create a certain amount of profit then you will not graduate. This would ensure a big enough income to support the system and give kids a chance to learn the programs they will need to survive in everyday life.

There is a better idea yet. If these courses yield a large enough income, the district may as well make it a necessity to take at least two vocational education classes each year. Why stop there, take out those courses which we will never use again such as math and history and replace them with profit turning classes like auto shop and film editing. We could easily replace science with photography since obviously we are using chemicals to create the film, which would satisfy the state standards in order to be able to meet requirements. If we go to school to learn about how to thrive in the real world, may as well take out English as well because all the children will be working so diligently they will have no time for speaking. Kids with other jobs outside of school will be able to leave only if they pull a double shift the next day, so profit requirements are met.

There are many ways the district can control children, they make us act a certain way, dress a certain style, talk with certain dialogue, and learn certain subjects. There is only one thing they haven’t taken from us and that is our free will, but if the only way to bring back the classes we love is to enforce a social working system within the school. At last, the district will have created something with a meaningful purpose.
