Story: D.C. To Pay Middle School Students For Attendance, Behavior
The article quotes that this is, "in an effort to get them to focus on school." It sounds to me like we are teaching them at a young age that money is the driving force behind everything. The only incentive for being a responsible student, is a financial gain. It's just one big bribe. Again, I would like to think there is a better way to invest $3 million towards education.
