It is plain fact that the United States is slipping in both the education standards it holds to its citizens and in the place of education in the world. What is causing this slip? Do you think that at Woodsville High School (with a credit minimum of 27 credits to graduate) the standard is too high? Should the credit load be reduced to the state level of 20 credits, or should there be a tier system? What could come from this decision? Do you think that the United States will continue to slip or is it just a transitional stage? Post your thoughts and enjoy!
