Spent 6 years in the Wayne County school system and graduated from there. I excelled, or at least thought I did, and then went on to college and could barely pass. While I was there, test results showed our county, academically, was at the bottom of the pack. Obviously I had no control over where I attended high school, but if your kids have another option, TAKE IT! While there I saw other kids struggle in areas and a large majority of the teachers were unwilling to help them or put in extra time with them. I struggled with math for a while and my mother had to hire an outside tutor to help me. It's just not the place to be to succeed in life.
