While I'd love to agree with your opinion, it is unrealistic. 40% of high schoolers will not enroll in college. A further 20% will drop out of college before they graduate. The students that do end up completing college are likely not the students this policy is worried about anyway.

While I'd love to see higher college attendance, the reality is that high school must prepare students for every possible outcome.
