Prison... A high school req?
The Article
Basically, Sen. Tim Green (D- MO) introduced a bill requiring all public 9th graders take a tour of state correctional facilities before their sophomore year. Principals and superintendents who do not comply would face being fired.
Discussion?

I think it's a great idea. I toured a "prison" when I was in my freshman year at high school and I came away from that experience knowing that that was one place I never wanted to end up.
I still remember what one of the worst punishments were for those that were bad. They would put them on what is called the "LOAF" They would take all your food for the day and blend it up and bake it in the oven. When I say all your food I mean everything you were supposed to get that day, breakfast, lunch, dinner and all the liquids too. It was nasty.

Seems practical enough. I’m sure a lot of prisoners would love to show them how life is like inside prison. Give them some purpose.
There's a lot of things high schools could be doing differently. My buddy and I were talking about how we practically slept through AP Economics our senior year the other day. Why the **** weren't we learning about how to own a house in the next ten years is beyond me. Something that all seniors could have actually benefited from.
