Modernized Education Systems does not help our kids learning system, but makes it worse

Now for "business", my opponents clarifies that students can have more than 5 absences, as long as they are excused. And parents must notify the school beforehand, but the student cannot miss 20% of the schools quarter, unless for a health hazard. I bring this subject up for the argument because of how it can ruin a schools popularity rating. To clarify, where my opponent asked what a "Popularity Rate" is, in which it is basically the amount of attention a school receives by passers. Examples being parents, and richer people willing to fund the school;and this can only be received with a high popularity rating for the school. The best way to achieve this is to have the school have a higher academic advantage over other schools. When a school becomes very linear towards the "easy route", stated in my first argument, with absences, then the school is actually showing more irresponsibility, than responsibility. Stated in a statistic, from New York Times, it said: "The most common core reason of why most young adults are irresponsible, is because of the lack of attention from their guardian". The parent being busy with their jobs, trying to fund for their child's survival and future. And when the child asks to be "excused", the parent willingly do it, not knowing about the future consequences. This gives more irresponsibility to an already corrupt MES system! However, I do agree that I child should be excused if having a health hazard. Next, my opponent brings up a statistic which I didn't bother to research. I thank you my opponent for pulling up the statistic, but the debate mainly falls under whether or not MES should be changed or stay the same. Where it should be changed, because if revealing that students can have five or more absences, where in my 2nd argument I loved the idea of focusing on five or less absences to fail the quarter, then it helps proves on how corrupt our MES is. To reveal how easy it is to manipulate it, and how irresponsibility can take place inside schools across the country. My opponent then states: "Every year in America, students fail to graduate for loads of absences. .. .except no one is hating the school. They are hating the school system for their policies that seem to limit otherwise potentially productive citizens' futures". Where my opponent actually admits that many students fail to graduate school because of loads of absences, showing how easy it is to manipulate the system. Putting more irresponsibility into the future of our country of the United States, and also showing how much the public hates the school system for "holding back" possible productive citizens. A schools job, which we can hopefully both agree upon, is to prepare a child's future. To be responsible, make rightful decisions, and live a happy life. And if the current MES is holding that student back, complained by the public, then that further proves why this debate goes more to the Pro, than Con. Then, my opponent states that standardized tests cannot be curved. Where to clarify what I was saying, I was saying that regular tests given in the schools (Like Pop Quizzes, or Vocabulary Tests) are curved. Where a teacher can easily curve the test if all the students fail, showing a more "Easier Route" than a more stricter MES. To conclude my argument, I argue that a schools MES (Modern Education System) is false and makes a students education much worse, than a more possible "stricter" system. A system where it grants students the classes they need for their future job they want, and not going "easy" on the students. Because a student must learn responsibility, and the best way this is given through the years of school a student goes through. My opponent argues that the current MES is great and should stay like so, but forgets that it is corrupt. Allowing students to take the "easy route" and become irresponsible. Do we want that for the future of this country? Our MES needs to look at more on ideas to better a student for their future, and stay strict in order for the student to gain the responsibility it needs. Thank you for the debate my fellow opponent! :)
