Kids who have vision problems should not be required to pass Drivers Ed. to graduate from high school. Expecting them to do so is pretty stupid.

It is probably a threat though. Remember how you could not graduate either junior high or high school if you didn't pass the Constitution test? After all, what if a person never passed it? I'm sure there isn't someone that has been in 8th grade since 1982 because they can't pass the Constitution test.:lol:

I don't even remember a Constitution Test. Was that a test on the constitution? :lol: I know we didn't have to pass anything like that to graduate.

That's true. We had to pass the constitution test as well as memorize and recite out loud the preamble.


We just had to pass the test. In high school I actually got a 92% on it. I had the second highest grade in my class. Not to brag or anything. :lol:

I'm not sure. The news was slow getting around back then. We didn't have no cars I'll tell you that. We went to school by Buggy and Horse. :lol:

Someone needs to send that to Jay Leno for his Headlines segment. That's bizarre.

BOGUS.

I remember now reading about this in the Red Eye a few weeks ago, but I had forgotten about it until you posted this.

P.S.--I love how we have our own little Chicago Mafia going on here lately :lol:

Schools in Los Angeles got rid of their drivers ed. programs all together. The last time they offered it was in the summer 2001, and I managed to take the class. Taking drivers ed in high school saved me like $400.

No one should have to pass drivers ed to graduate because driving is a privelage not a right. Just because most people drive dosen't mean everyone
What about all the people who cannot drive to a disabiltily or cannot afford a car. It also a lot easier to get around chicago without car since they decent transit service compared to other parts of the usa.

Our school did that too. Fortunately it was after 1995 when I took it, cuz I didn't want to have to pay that much just to get a damn piece of paper.
