Bill would pay Detroit students to earn good grades

[oneway]

To reward high school students with cash that may not necessarily be used for higher education makes absolutely no sense. What is the expectation exactly? Grants and scholarships reward scholastic achivement by offering a relevant opportunity for growth. It's an investment, which is why some cities like Kalamazoo have promise programs.

And I agree with DetroitTeacher, the other proposals regarding class size, mentors and individualized learning plans would go much further to ensure a decent educational opportunity.
