"High school should be creating a diamond but instead its crushing my child into powder" This is what a parent recently told me in regards to her son and his experience in high school She told me she knows he’s going to do well in the work force because he’s intelligent and skilled but not in the way that school requires it She said school represents one kind of intelligence and doesn't value any other types "Its torture for him but he has to make it through. This doesn’t seem like its good for a child’s soul or spirit." She's not the first parent to tell me this nor will she be last The kids and teens NEED us to do better than this
