"Let Kids Rule The School" New York Times

I found this article SO interesting! Being a high school student, I can see how some students get frustrated with the curriculum. Sometimes, high school gets frustrating because you have no choices. At HHS you have more choices then you do at a lot of other schools, which is good, but at high schools in general you don't have many choices. I think it is really cool that those public schools let those students run their own school for a semester. Obviously, it worked considering the students who almost dropped out stayed in school and was eager to learn. I think it would be amazing if HHS let students do that, because we have a pretty good amount of drop-outs. It would be so much better if we could learn more of what we want!
