Replace High School with Internships and everyone wins

…All public school “children” of say 14+ who are interested in escaping school and learning a valuable work skill, simply opt out.

They find themselves a challenging and rewarding internship in an area that interests them.

If they have to be officially homeschooled, fine. But schools would be wise to approve this vocational training.

Imagine what your town would look like.

Instead of confining teens to a building and forcing them to associate with only people their own age, they would be interacting with responsible employed adults who have skills to teach.

Everywhere you went, you would see interns fulfilling all sorts of responsibilities–receptionists, retail layout, nursing home assistants, IT, personal training, journalism, and office work.

This would free up more experienced workers time and make any company more productive.

The economy would boom. More would get done. Your town would be revitalized.

And your taxes would decrease… more on that a little later.

The best part about this plan is that it can be implemented by individuals, and does not require a massive social movement. ……
