Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

It is to my dismay I notice that grades in our high schools are dropping far below the standard level.

Today children in school don`t seem to be taking education seriously. They are getting grades that ”satisfy” themselves, but they are not working to their potentials.

The purpose of education is to see how far a student can excel, not if he or she can pass a class or grade.

A few decades ago it was a sin to bring home a ”C” paper. Today it is acceptable.

It`s upsetting to think that one day these young people are going to run our country.
