Judging by the number of students in college remedial classes, this is not happening. First, understand that education should not be about meeting the minimum requirements. To succeed your child needs to be exposed to a full menu of content-rich courses. Check with your child s school to find out what is required to graduate and what courses are recommended for college bound students. Next, find out what is required in those classes.
Every college has a list of admission requirements.
Make sure you are not blinded by a false sense of security. As a parent you need to be vigilant and make sure your school does the job you have entrusted it to do. Otherwise, your child s job at the pizza joint could last a lifetime.
