Rya for Principal

Some of the requirements for graduating high school make no sense. They force you to take classes that, after high school, you'll never use them again. If I had the power to create a class, it would be like an Adult Prep class. This class would give you the basic skills needed to survive on your own after high school, when we all get thrown out into the real world. It would teach us how to budget, how to write checks, how to balance a checkbook, how to build credit. This class would also cover what and what to do when cooking, cleaning, taking care of children, manage time, pay taxes, apply for loans and all that jazz. We are required to take so many ridiculous classes, why not require learning things we will actually use in life?
