PLN13

What do you think about when someone says test? Maybe questions, studying, multiple choices, advertisements? Yes you read it right Advertisements the students at Rancho Bernardo High School have become accustom to having ads posted on the bottom on every test. Why would schools decide to do this is it helping them, or is it just distracting the students from routine test taking. Sponsors pay 10$ to place an ad on a quiz, $20 for a chapter test, and $30 for a semester final so really is this just greed by the school to make money because there is no way this tactic is helping the kids become better students. But some think it is a creative way to bring to site how we shelter our youth from opportunities and decision making. But most do not think this is the right way to address it and we should go through the parents. In spite of all efforts this decision is the kids and kids alone and not even an ad on their geometry test can change that.
