Well it depends. Sometimes people can sign up for it, and sometimes it changes. But right now, people take it in 7th grade (when they get to middle school) Hope this helps! :)
4 :
Usually when people start middle school, but it depends.

Iit Depends on what place of the United States. Many start in 7th (middle school, or Secondary School) others offer until 9th grade (High School, or third yr of Secondary School) and a lesser amount start in kinder garden.

we don't really call them "state" schools. at the kindergarten through 12th grade, it's either public school or private school. the vast majority of students go to public schools. i don't think you should pick a high school based on the "best one" (if there's even a way to find that), but based on the location. where do you want to live? what kind of weather? what kind of people? there are different cultures and norms in different regions of the US.

Is there a vaccination for USA school girls that is mandatory
Is there a vaccination for USA school girls that is mandatory ?
Was wondering if there is now, or will be in the near future be a mandatory vaccination for girls in the united states of america that are enrolled in public schools. The one to prevent cancer of the unterus or ovaries. If this vaccine were to be made mandatory do you think it's fair? Should it be a choice instead?

Its NOT mandatory BUT it is highly recommended that we take the vaccination. My Grandma works for a Heath Department and i have to go get mine pretty soon.
2 :
There is nothing mandatory right now. There is no vaccine to prevent cancer of the uterus or ovaries. You are probably thinking of Gardasil, which protects against certain cervical cancers. It's a choice to be vaccinated. If one is high-risk, then by all means, have the vaccine. Women who aren't in a monogamous relationship are more at risk than those who are. HPV is a sexually transmitted disease that can lead to cervical cancer. Keep in mind, this doesn't protect from ALL forms of cervical cancer.

take the government out of it and let the teachers do there jobs
2 :
I would pay teachers enough that REALLY good people would want to teach, rather than only the people who (too often, sadly) can't do anything else. :-(
3 :
pay really good teachers much more money. their average salary in NY is like 40000 to 50000 for all the work they do i think they should be paid more. at least like 60 to 70 thousand.
4 :
Let them learn at home on the computer. It will lower taxes & Columbine type incidents will be a thing of the past. Let them interact with others online so their social skills are not diminished.
5 :
As you have noted there are a number of issues with the school system, but I will only address acouple. First restore power to the school staff so that they might enforce rules and discipline, and then raise the standards back to a comparable level with those years ago, where a student had to have acquired an actual education to receive a diploma.
6 :
#1 Raise the wages of schoolteachers across the country. Pay raises should be mandatory for teachers with respectable track records in terms of turning out literate children. #2 Get rid of summer vacation. School should be a year-round affair like they have in Japan. The rest of us have to work like this, why shouldn't teachers & students? Vacations should be limited to a week per season - Winter, Spring, Summer, & Fall. #3 Uniforms should be the norm in every school, not just a few districts. But there should be some room for fashion flexibility in the high school years as the kids are becoming more adult-like.
7 :
Have the tax money follow the student like it was in the 50's and 60's. If the child goes to a Catholic school send the money there same if it is a Jewish school. Parents can pay the difference. The school should be required to meet certian requirements for academics and have an open admission policy. This would. 1) Improve competition for students and thus improve Quality 2) Improve pay for teachers that can teach well. 3) Improve ethics and morality. (anyone ever have a nun for a teacher?) 4) Allow parents more SAY in THEIR CHILD's education. 5) Removes a bunch of government red tape. 6) Allow local school boards to govern the public schools.
8 :
Time school starts, when school is in, and dress codes.
