Topic: Should high school students be paid in exchange for good attendance and performance?
------------
Last week, French people had a drastic debate about whether high school students should be paid in exchange for good attendance and performance. The French government started a pilot program in some vocational high schools in Paris, with the simple objective: increase study motivation and class attendance, reduce truancy and dropout rate. Opponents and advocators have shown two totally different attitudes towards this program. In my opinion, the governments around the world should have regulations to encourage high school students to have better attendance and performance by rewards including cash.

It has been a very common phenomena that students with excellent performance in school are prized with honor and even cash. This rewards system is also welcome to students, and has played an important role in stimulating students to attend classes on a regular basis, to work hard to keep up with the courses, and to gain a beautiful GPA as high as possible. Especially in the universities in USA, studentship and fellowship attracts the students from the whole planet to further education in USA, and also is a great inspiration to students so that students will do their best to fight for the qualification. I think that's why American education is so successful all around the world.

Opponents may complain that education and money should not be combined together as it will probably have a bad impact on high school students about study motivation and human value. I think this worry is unnecessary and dispensable. A student in high school has grown up to have the ability to distinguish what's right from what's wrong. In addition, if the governments and schools pay much attention to students' usage of rewarded cash, and conduct healthy consumption, I have a faith that students will be more respectable to their endeavors and also cherish their lives more.

Furthermore, an old proverb says, the more we have learnt, the more we will have a willing to learn. As a college student, I have a lot experience that interest and motivation can be developed by learning more about some objects. Sometimes, students will feel boring about a specified course full of advanced and useful knowledge. With the inspiration of material reward, we will do our best to get learnt of it, and usually results in realizing that 'it's interesting' or 'I like it'. As a way to develop interest, I appreciate the function of material reward.

In all, I insist on that high school students should be paid in exchange for good attendance and performance, due to the three reasons mentioned above.

Last week, French people had a (heated) debate (as to) whether high school students should be paid in exchange for good attendance and performance.
The French government started a pilot program in some vocational high schools in Paris, with the simple objective: increase study motivation and class attendance, reduce truancy and drop-out rate.
Opponents and advocators have shown two totally different attitudes towards this programme. In my opinion, the governments around the world should have regulations to encourage high school students to have better attendance and performance by rewards including cash.

It has been a very common phenomena that students with excellent performance in school are (rewarded) with honour and even cash. This rewards system(has been warmly wecomed by) the students, and has played an important role in (encouraging) students to attend classes on a regular basis, to work hard to keep up with the courses, and to gain a beautiful GPA as high as possible.

In universities in (the) USA, studentship and fellowship attracts students from the whole planet to further education in USA, and also is a great inspiration to students so that students will do their best to fight for the qualification. I think that's why American education is so successful all around the world.

Opponents may complain that education and money should not be combined together, as it will probably have a bad impact on high school students (regarding) study motivation and human value.
I think this worry is unnecessary and dispensable.
A student in high school has grown up to have the ability to distinguish what's right from what's wrong.
In addition, if the governments and schools pay much attention to students' usage of rewarded cash, and conduct healthy consumption, I have a faith that students will be more respectable to their endeavors, and also cherish their lives more.

Furthermore, an old proverb says, the more we have learnt, the more we will have a willing(ness) to learn.

As a college student, I have a lot (of first-hand) experience that interest and motivation can be developed by learning more about some (subjects).
Sometimes, students will feel (bored) about a specified course, full of advanced and useful knowledge.
With the inspiration of material reward, we (would) do our best to (become interested and learn it), and (this attitude) usually results in realizing that 'it's interesting' or 'I like it'.
As a way to develop interest, I appreciate the function of material reward.

All in all, I (consider) that high school students should be paid in exchange for good attendance and performance, due to the three reasons mentioned above.

please comments on it.

I am in favour of the author statement that school student should paid bases on the attendance and performance. I the following para I will clarify my position.
First if a student have to paid bases on the performance then s/he will not interested to miss the classes because absent in the class will rise the toll of the tuition fees. So guardian will be ware to send there children to school every day. Second if the fee also set on the bases on the performance then it will encourage the student to do better in the exam, overall it will enhance the level of the whole class as well. Though these are the two major advantage of setting tuition fee based on the performance, there is some disadvantage of the system. First some student may be absent in the classes due to valid reason like sickness of other cases. So this will cause the increase of the tuition fee for the family.
Second performance base tuition fee may create bad competition among the students. They may try to get more credit than there friends. So they might not interested to share the there academic perticulars among the friends. These two disadvantage may be minimize by customizing the condition like if the student can show the logical reason for absent then they were not subjected to extra tuition fee. Second student may classify according to the grade, so they are not intending in bad competition.
In conclusion if the tuition fee of the student is set best on the attendance and performance with customize options then it may have a positive impact on all over performance of the class.

Msohag10, I hesitate to comment on your essay as it is riddled with errors.

Can I suggest that you read it over a few times and try to correct most of your simple mistakes?

I will be happy to edit your corrected version, should it be required.

Kitos.

Thank you, Kitos,

In paragraph four, I want to demonstrate that material reward would stimulate students into some specified subjects at the first start, then as the proverb says that students will become interest after having learnt of them. The revision you offered is somewhat off my intention. Though, thank you for making the sentences much more smooth.
