Why Should I bother Graduating High School?

Students in grade 9 are beginning to discover for themselves what the advantages are for graduating high school.

9ECAG began critically thinking about the economic reasons for graduating high school.  As a class we read the article "879, 000 Reason to Stay in School", we highlighted items we found P-ositive / M-inus / I-interesting, then we made a note of our thoughts.  See the example below.

9A - Read article A and highlight 3-5 PMI items and note what you think.
9F - We'll finish snowball interview introductions tomorrow.  

Meet the Teacher from 5 - 7 pm tomorrow!  Please come and have some fun!  : )
