I don't know that the high schools do it to have better teams (in Texas or anywhere else).  But it definitely happens on an individual basis that the parent(s) hold back their kids (even though NOT academically necessary) so they will have a competitive advantage when it comes to sports.

My high school days were some of the best of my life...granted, I just graduated a few years ago, but still--sometimes I would give anything to go back.  Go ahead--have fun! :-)

The best day of my life was the day I saw my oldest son, quite the underachiever, walk across the stage at his high school graduation!  I was so proud!

17...I ruled the school!  I was a Senior in High School and had a Varsity Letter in Cross-Country as well as Track, I was Vice President of the National Honor Society, Student Council, Key Club and Bleacher Bums and was number 7 out of 323 people in my class.  It's been pretty much downhill from there...(not really).

A High School Diploma signifies that a person met the curriculum (classes) requirement of the state.  A High School Certificate just signifies that a person attended school but did not necessarily take the classes necessary by the state to graduate. The Certificate will most likely NOT get you into college.  Talk to you High school counselor to find out what your options are.\n\nYour friend can also request her transcripts from her high school.  They should say if she graduated or was awarded a certificate of completion.

I think it would depend on where and which school.  For example poorer areas would be higher typically than areas with higher incomes.  On average though, about 20% of the people that start highschool will not graduate.

Hi there.\n\nThe high school I went to was LAME!  However, being that I was a studious student, college was a breeze.  I'm now done with my Masters.  I received honors for all of my degrees.\n\nTexas, USA

My senior year. I had the most fun because I joined a few clubs and was more active in chorus. I was in a trio that won first in state and a triple trio that won second in state. I also had lots of friends and fun. Unfortunately, I had a little too much fun and my grades fell so badly that I almost didn't graduate. I barely made it, but at the last exam, I gave it my all and passed. If I would have only done that throughout all of high school, I would have been an honor student, along with winning lots of scholarships and going on to college. But, alas, I didn't. Don't mean to bum you out, but it's true. I had more freedom as a senior, turning 18 in the middle of the year. I didn't handle 18 too well. I hope you do better than I did. Study hard. Get the best grades you can. Join a couple of clubs. Have fun. You'll only do this once, then it's gone. Learn from one who's been there, done that. Be careful. Be safe. <*)))><

it depends. the smaller the school the more clicky it will be. large high schools with big populations are easier to get through. by the way, not every single person in highschool is a jock or supermodel as depicted on t.v.

If you want to graduate high school, you must persevere.

My school (granted this is 15 years ago now) the student council winners were always the jocks and popular kids.  Geeks never stood a chance.  So I go with the be popular answer.

Yep. I went to high school in Texas. I graduated last year. We had to take health class and had to learn CPR to pass the class. It's really not that hard.
