Last week, we asked you if you thought schools should assign a reading list for students during their summer vacation. While some of you felt students should have a break in the summer, most of you felt summer reading is important, whether or not the books are on a required list. Thanks for your insightful comments!
On Wednesday, Insideschools covered the awards reception for the REACH program, which gives money to students who pass AP exams. REACH is not one-of-a-kind; in June 2007, we blogged about Opportunity NYC, another program that offers students monetary incentives for good grades. A few months later, our former student blogger, Seth, let us know how the NYC Student Union reacted to the program. Now we'd like to know what you think! Do you support paying students for performance? Vote now and let us know why (or why not) below!
