I went to HS in rural Oregon where the "you need to go to college to succeed" didn't work for most of the students. Trade options like metal shop, wood shop and construction slowly got less funding or were dropped all together. Those things kept a lot of HS kids interested enough to stay long enough to graduate, let alone have a future career. Don't worry, Oregon tried a new test and sent every HS student at Lincoln High School a $1400 debit card a few months ago "accidentally". I'm sure that will help reduce poverty and nutrition. Don't worry...it just came at the expense of federal tax payers. https://www.oregonlive.com/education/2021/11/oregon-accidentally-sent-15-million-in-federal-food-assistance-to-students-at-portlands-lincoln-high.html https://www.oregonlive.com/education/2021/11/oregon-accident...
