that California is trying to pass a ¨no pass/no drive¨ law to encourage high school students to get better grades and not drop out.

to learn as much as possible in life. The Drive to Succeed “Students will float to the mark you set‚” said Mike Rose (Rose 110). Every day students are being held to a lower standard.

It is clearly stated in our nation’s Declaration of Independence that all men‚ (and women for that matter) are created equal.
