I hate it, but many high schools are nothing but a glorified day care. The system is broken, I admit. But what is the solution, however?



A good start would be to segregate (sorry, politically incorrect word) the students that are discipline problems into separate classes from the other students. This will accomplish two things, they won't disrupt the other students, and they won't have as much of an audience to act out in front of. Some of them may even get the idea that their actions have consequences (not many). And they will serve as examples to other students, not in a good way. It will suck for the teachers that have to watch them for the day, but they can let them sleep, play on their phones, etc., if they don't want to learn, and can't behave. I would be willing to bet that the overall school test scores would improve dramatically. And the ones that aren't reached are already basically unreachable, so not much change with them.
