Let Are Kids Walk

It's been over the news recently that students and parents are protesting schools that are not allowing seniors to walk across the stage at graduation and get even an empty diploma if their grades will not pass them through the grade or if they fail the skills tests.





This picture, from WFAA-TV, Dallas-Fort Worth, is of seniors at Trimble Tech High School picketing the Fort Worth Independent School District on their decision to not allow the students to walk across the stage at commencement because they did not pass their TAKS, (Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills,) tests.

This student should be ashamed as should her parents. Are these our future leaders? Heaven help us all.
