This is about to be great9:54am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Jake
Just kidding9:54am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Jake
what did everyone think about the town meeting in the podcast?9:55am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abbie
You all remember that she didn't say it, right?9:56am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
She wanted to, but couldn't9:56am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
didn't say what?9:56am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
yes9:56am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abbie
I think it was crazy. I can understand where they're coming from, but these kids actually want aneducation.9:56am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Kaitlyn
I think some parents would feel bad, but in a situation like that I don't think it would changeanyone's mind.9:56am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
But 1,000 plus kids did want to be there.9:57am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
Did the kids want to go to the new school?9:57am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
yes9:57am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
at least the signed up for it9:57am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
they*9:57am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
the parents should of seen it as it was, these kids weren't coming here to make a problem butrather going there because they need it9:57am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Evan

I think they did want to be there becuase even after they were required to each have an individualpass from a judge a lot of them stayed9:57am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Jessica
I really don't think it has to do with the school, it's really about what's going on outside of schoolfor them9:57am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by lo
That is a lot of effort to go through if they didnt really want to be there9:57am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Jessica
They gave the kids a choice. They could either stay at their current school or go to the new school.The kids that chose the new school9:57am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Kaitlyn
I think it's kinda a tough thing for the parent. When shopping for a home for most parents, theschool district is thoroughly analyzed.9:58am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
actually wanted an education9:58am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Kaitlyn
Which is making them act some way towards school9:58am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by lo
i think it depends on that specific persons attitude, if they want to learn or not9:58am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by emily
yeah i think they would get a better education out of it, but i also agree with abby they would haveto want to learn9:58am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ty
I mean there's a reason those parents didn't choose normandy9:58am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
Great job Ben9:58am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Koby
Was this an issue of race?9:58am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Alex
Yes9:58am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
absolutely, but not solely9:58am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
Some folks suggest that in times like this kids from those bad schools "self-select" themselves outand would be good citizens..9:58am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
race was "hidden" in the parent's arguments

i appreciate your words of kindness Koby9:58am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by ben
i think the prime example of how bad Normandy was was when they explained how her sisteralmost didn't graduate bc they lost her credits.9:59am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abbie
Yes.The parents said it wasn't but we all know that it was.9:59am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Kaitlyn
In that case, what kids would apply to be sent there?9:59am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Koby
The ones that actually cared10:00am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
it was totally about race. it was about the parents pride.10:00am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abbie
Are we more tolerant now?10:00am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
Because the busing would have to go both ways, right?10:00am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Koby
No10:00am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Alex
@rich not koby10:00am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Alex
It is a problem derived from race issues even if people want to claim it isn't about skin color. Thetwo schools and their separate culture10:00am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
I don't think so. I think we're just more censored and scared to say what we actually think10:00am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
Almost all people today will not admit either to others or to themselves that they are racist.Everybody likes to think they are accepting10:00am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Jessica
In today's society I don't think something like that would happen. Sure we are racist but not tosuch a bad extent.10:01am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Sean
What if JCPS folded and Oldham Co absorbed their students?10:01am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich

South would explode10:01am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Koby
We would have no room for students and our resources would diminish.10:01am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Sean
How would the community respond. (Assuming there was an East Oldham High)10:01am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
@rich i don't think we are more tolerant. i think we are more ignorant about it because we allbelieve it doesn't exist because it's 2017 an10:01am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Evan
oldham county schools would not be top 10 in best schools in Kentucky anymore10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Dewey
there would be so many students, i think the quality of the education could possibly go down10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by emily
Parents wouldn't be too happy. I mean my parents don't even want me to go to Ballard for a playmy friend is in because of what it's like.10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
I wouldn't mind having JCPS students come to Oldham Co. If the students have a choice andchoose to comehere to helpbetter their education,10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Kaitlyn
d the civil rights movement was a long time ago so everyone assumes it's fixed and moved on10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Evan
then i say let them come10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Kaitlyn
well then the JCPS students would have better access to resources that would better theireducation10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ty
I have noticed that teachers seem to be sort of racist to some kids, so how is a kid suppose to goto nice school but feeling like teachers10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by lo
The parents thought that the new black kids would cause fights and lower test scores but a yearafter the integration the school remained10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
stable10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
@Ryan--what's so bad about Ballard?10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich

I think most of the students would be ok with JCPS students coming here, but the parents wouldn'tbe10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Hannah
I wouldn't care if kids from JCPS schools came to our schools, as long as they didn't distract fromour learning.10:02am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Maria
we are already overcrowded so we wouldn't have room. we would need another building, but asfar as the students I would be exited for10:03am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abbie
new people10:03am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abbie
A lot of these schools would be way too overcrowded to support all the students.10:03am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Sean
Look at Ballard and Eastern. Those schools are much larger than ours. We are struggling right nowto take care of the students we have.10:03am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
i feel as though when some kids come into community they aren't used to teachers seem to acttowards some kids differently10:03am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by lo
If we took on the JCPS students it would be much worse10:03am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
Evan I totally agree.10:03am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
@abbie--for the thought exercise, let's assume there is enough space via a new school10:03am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
if teachers are the leaders, what is there to follow if they aren't doing it right10:03am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by lo
I don't see a problem with bringing more students who want to be here, that's the point of a gooschool10:03am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Evan
good10:04am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Evan
then i would be fine with it10:04am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abbie
People try to turn a blind eye to race issues because we are "modern and open minded" now.10:04am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H

There are lots of kids at SOHS that don't want to be here now.10:04am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
agree?10:04am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
So let them drop out10:04am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Alex
I think it would be okay to bring in JCPS...as long as the teachers are still good those who want todo well will still have that opportunit10:04am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Jessica
I don't really care about the students coming, the only problem I see is the space. If that was fixedthen let them come in10:04am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
If let JCPS students come here we would have to expand the school, size wise10:04am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by NoahG
So if you'10:04am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
And most kids in JCPS i believe do want to do well.10:04am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Jessica
i think we are still racist, but in a very different way than previous generations10:04am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abbie
*If we let10:05am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by NoahG
If the school is good,then we shouldn't withhold it from other people who are actually acquiringfor a better education.10:05am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Kaitlyn
I agree @Abbie. We are still racist, it is just more hidden10:05am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Jessica
So if you're an unmotivated 17/18 year old, you should just be allowed to fail?10:05am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
I think that if oldham merged with jefferson there would be plenty of race problems initially.10:05am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
I say if its all fair game and some kids just ginunely don't want a education let it be.10:05am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by lo
and i think black people are racist just as white people are10:05am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abbie
But not to give up on some kids who may be facing things out of school we dont know about10:05am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by lo

I feel like the good thing about a small school is that teachers can put more time into individualstudents. If we add all these students it10:05am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Sean
Oldham county is a product of white flight10:05am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
would go away10:05am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Sean
You right ryan10:05am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
I think racism is the biggest underlying problem in America today10:06am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Alex
If more kids came to SOHS, more teachers would be hired.10:06am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
resources wouldn't be the issue.10:06am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
Whats your point @Rich10:06am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
would we need to add more to the school10:06am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Sean
Merging with Jefferson would start a huge conflict10:06am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
What would the conflict be exactly?10:06am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by JacobH.
I think the difference between our school and others has a lot to do with money and how we areraised10:06am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abbie
i agree with abbie10:07am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by ben
I feel like the parents' concern w the "violent" francis howell students should be the same concernswe have with any students10:10am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Maria
There really is not any more violence there than here, I think. I came from a majority black schoolwhen I moved here, and nothing ever10:10am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Jessica
Any students have the potential to be violent10:10am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Maria

Is there a drug problem here?10:10am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
In St.francis "crime" didn't even go up. That argument was all based on a fear of new black kidsmoving into the school.10:10am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
yes10:10am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abbie
pot, heroin, etc10:10am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Doyon
ya but should we assume they are violent or give them the benefit of the doubt @maria10:10am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Sean
i agree with jacob, everywhere you go there will be problems with drugs and other things10:11am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ty
we just assume the drug problem is rampant at low income schools because tv makes usassociate them10:11am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Doyon
not everyone who goes to private schools is rich10:11am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abby
If you go to a private school though your going to be more wealthy than most.10:11am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
not always10:11am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan
scholarships are often awarded10:11am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abby
You might not be rich by your standards but compared to other school systems or other peopleyou would look rich.10:12am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan.H
it's hard to get scholarships too10:12am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abbie

i think so10:13am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Ryan
drugs arent metal10:13am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Doyon
I still think the average student at a private school come from a higher socioeconomic class thanthose in the public school system10:13am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Koby
Yes @rich. Some drugs are more dangerous and more expensive than others which means somedrugs could be more of a threat to schools10:13am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Maria
I had to be patted down at a school once to take the act....and that's not even during school hours10:13am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by lo
Or if it is a white person on drugs, they are portrayed as the victim and not the bad guy @Doyon10:13am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Jessica
It's all based stereotypes and where you live10:13am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by NoahG
by saying that whites use more drugs bc they can afford it is slightly racist bc you are assumingthat blacks are all poor @ doyon10:13am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by abby
Do you think that Oldham County will look differently--demographically--in 5 years? 10? 15?10:13am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich

Why does a white family choose to stay?12:44am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
The starter says that the scores for the African-American students rose. But what happened to theexisting scores of the whites?12:44am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Karthikeyan
they can't afford to leave probably12:44am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Josh
they are offered better opportunities12:44am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Cameron
Or, DO white families CHOOSE to stay.12:44am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
It depends the situation12:44am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Collin
Does $ have anything to do with it?12:44am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich

I agree rohan12:45am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by macki
so wait, this is about greed and power again?12:45am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
It would only affect them if it affects their teachers @rohan12:45am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Collin
so yes12:45am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Collin
I think power but not really greed12:46am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Cameron
Everything is about greed and power12:46am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Karthikeyan
Power is a resultant of success12:46am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Collin
many students here rely on asking teachers questions in one to one questioning. if we could addmore teachers and room, it would work12:46am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by J
what about those 3 years of students who would be part of "the sacrifice?"12:47am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Josh
do you guys think that white or black culture has more power in society today?12:47am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by rohan

Black culture affects white culture12:47am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Cameron
that's a controversial question; it depends who you ask12:47am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Collin
white culture has more power politically and representatively but black culture has more powersocially12:47am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Nathan
I agree with J, there is no right answer12:47am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by rohan

I'd say they're starting to become more equal just because of how society is developing andrecognizing equality12:48am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Collin
i dont necessarily think that black culture has more social power though12:48am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by rohan
its like the food we eat, we eat chinese food, there is cuban food, american food. foods from everywhere12:48am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by J
Whites still have the "upper hand" in many countries though12:48am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Collin
is black or white culture feared?12:49am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by macki
it does. Look at the rise of hip hop and the culture related to that. That came from africanamericans... not whites12:49am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Nathan
What constitutes a dangerous school?12:49am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
in some cases yes, each is feared by the other @macki but I don't think its universal either way12:49am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Josh
arent most countries autonomus now? so how do white people haev an upper hand12:49am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by J
I agree with Nathan, Black culture I think has a longer impact on society.12:49am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Cameron
A dangerous, low-income area12:49am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Collin
right but who popularized those trends nathan? white people did...12:49am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by rohan
Drugs, weapons, violence @rich12:49am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Chase
through black public figures12:50am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Nathan
think about rock music started in black communities and only became popular b/c of white iconslike Elvis12:50am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by rohan
how they are handled is key12:50am, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by macki

Would kids who go to private schools think that SOHS is a "bad" school?1:13pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
Most likely, because it's public1:13pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Meredith
not necessarily bad but that they are better than us1:14pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Justin
they don't think it's a bad education but most think that theirs is better1:14pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by ashley

Yes because some kids, not all of them, are what you could call "privileged" and they would lookdown on us.1:14pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by MadelynL
no not at all in fact they would probably like it more because it has more diversity1:14pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Bdon
I would think so, they'd be exposed to things that aren't as nice as what they have1:14pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Zaubi
maybe, because with students basically paying for their education, their mindset would be to thinkthat public schools aren't as good.1:14pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Mile
Are people at SOHS overtly racist?1:15pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
There are for sure some individuals here at SOHS that are...1:15pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by MadelynL
depends on the person, don't think you can generalize based on a school as a whole1:15pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Meredith
unfortunately some are...1:15pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by ashley
rich i think there are some not a few but alot kids1:15pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by arich
no1:15pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Bdon
There are kids who react differently to one race than the other1:16pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Lauren
@Lauren, I wouldn't call that overt racism1:16pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
Still racism, though.1:16pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
no, sure there are racist people here but they have enough sense to keep it private1:17pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Zaubi
There is, I've heard racist comments but not in everyone and unfortunately you will see thateverywhere1:17pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Meredith
not just south1:17pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Meredith

I think that most of the racism we see is not overt racism at all. It exists, but not publicly in aschool environment w/out big punishments1:18pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Noah
Do you think it's worse (racism) in the parent community?1:18pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
Definitely.1:18pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Lauren
most def in the parent community becuase they can influence the kids they have1:18pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by arich
type Y if you have a relative that's racist1:18pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
Y1:18pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
Yes, because they were raised in a different time period where it was considered acceptable buttimes have changed and it is so not okay1:18pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by MadelynL

My step-uncle's side of his family are extremely racist. But that didn't stop my step-uncle frommeeting my dad and I who are black.1:20pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Braydan
Therefore, I believe that even if parents are racist, it is up to the child to make his/her owndecision.1:21pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Braydan
i think i have relatives who are prejudice but not necessarily racist1:21pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Justin
Would you agree that kids adopt the ways and the culture of their parents more often than not.1:21pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
but unfortunately many kids from a small age hear racist things from their parents and grow upwith that mentality1:21pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Meredith
My step-uncle chose to neglect his racism side of his family and was open to welcoming my fatherand I when we first met them.1:21pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Braydan
I believe that we do adopt the ways of our parents but still develop a unique personality based offof those ways1:22pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by MadelynL
I agree with Braydan, however our parents have a big influence on most of us and although it isour choice our parents views/habits1:22pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by bailey
I am almost positive that kids adopt most of their opinions from one or both of their parents1:22pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Lauren
I agree that most kids adopt the culture of their parents1:22pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by madeline

it depends on if the kid in independent or not because my parents and i agree on nothing most ofthe time1:22pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Bdon
Kids either learn to be like their parents or to be different regardless they learn something.1:22pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by ashley
i can agree with that Madelyn1:22pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Zaubi
I think it's up to us to make an informed decision when we grow up as to how we will treat people,even if it's not right1:22pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Meredith
I think that the way you are raised has a huge impact on you. Now days there are more influencesthen just your parents on you, teachers as1:22pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Talon
thye do but also you see kids who just think that the parents are totally wrong1:22pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by arich
I think our behavior is heavily influenced on how we are raised.1:23pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Lauren
Either way, I think parents have less influence now than ever before because we have mediainforming us constantly, so we can make decisions1:23pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Noah
for ourselves1:23pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Noah
its especially prevalent in issues such as politics. When you talk to most kids, its almost as iftheyre reciting their parents exact words1:23pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by madeline
No doubt parents have an significant influence on our lives. But as we come of age, we begin tomake the moral/immoral choices for ourselves1:23pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Braydan
as well have a huge effect on kids, they are the ones that can shape your minds, teach you, theyare meant to effect the way you thinks1:23pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Talon
instead of thinking for themselves1:23pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by madeline
People aren't always brought up in an environment where they can make their own decisions fortheir values1:23pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Lauren

so if you had an ACT score of like a 15 but you were actually an intelligent person, do u think it'sokay for someone to say ur a bad person2:26pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by megan
I think that Oldham Co. Schools can continue to have 30 kids in a class with no problem.2:26pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Hayden
You would rather take the better student @buder but there are factors that case them to testporley2:26pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Heather
a bad person and a bad student are very different things megan2:26pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Buder
school is about education not violence. i believe test scores do reflect how bad or good it is.2:26pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by hunter
With "at risk" kids here at South, they have what's called "collabs" where two teachers worktogether.2:26pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
having a 15 on the ACT doesn't make you a bad person2:26pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Anna
and having a 36 doesn't make you a good person2:27pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Anna
colleges do not look at the person and go awe they are nice, they look at the academicacheivments, that it. You are a piece of paper and #2:27pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Buder

You learn that you have to do things for yourself you have to grow up sooner or later why notgrow up now?2:31pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Heather
kids fail to respect adults because they honestly believe they know better than them2:31pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by savannah
to get into JCTC you can take an alternate test to get in2:31pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Anna
well, a lot of people have higher aspirations than JCTC2:31pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Buder
I agree with Hayden, bad experiences could lead to not being able to respect adults2:31pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by annie
so is JCTC a bad school? @buda2:32pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by megan
ok but if you grow up in a bad area and no one inyour family has been through college and no oneis their to help you then JCTC is a good2:32pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Anna
way to start2:32pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Anna
not always, but if you are going for a job interview and you have a degree from a accrediteduniversity and a non gen-ed degree, ----2:33pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Buder

There is a stigma attached to them, though.2:37pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Rich
exactly. doesn't mean you've had a poor education if you go to JCTC, sometimes you can't affordsomething as simple as UK2:37pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by megan
There are always gonna be opportunities for a student in our country who wants to get aneducation and be successful.2:37pm, Tues, Dec 5, 2017 by Hayden
