The wonders of Education
During the time in foster care children are subjected to moving around a lot a having to switch to many other schools and hurting their attendance and academic year as well. So the information that I was able to use to help me graduate from high school is the AB167 which is an education law that was put in effect in 2009. This law is put in place for foster youth that are in danger of not graduating and need help with credits.  For this law a lot of foster youth were able to complete the requirements to help them succeeded and want to continue to college and more.
For the AB167 the requirements are a way for student in foster care to be able to beat the odds and come forth with the courage to complete high school. This Law consist of the student completing course that are shorter and less heavy in terms of the student not worrying about how they are going to graduate from high school. It creates a way for students to learn that there is hope and no child should be left behind.
For the essay that I’m writing in Business communicating, I am offering this law as a way to help children in foster care to be able to graduate and to see that there is a way for young foster youth to look up to something because it is possible for them to complete school.
