Learn To Earn of the Day: Dohn Community High School, a dropout recovery charter school in Cincinnati, is attempting a novel method of persuading student to come to class: Paying them.
The school says it has teamed up with donors and the Easter Seals to offer seniors who arrive on-time every day $25 a week. Lower grades are eligible to receive $10 a week.
“You have students who we haven’t seen in a week or two coming to school,” says principal Ramon Davenport. “So that tells me that this incentive that we’re trying is actually working.”

while this is sad, given the type of school it is, it’s kind of a good idea. showing up on time and being present to receive a minimal paycheck is what we’ll all be doing for the rest of our lives anyway, better practice…
