One idea I have discussed with people is that having one diploma for different goals doesn't make a lot of sense. Why should someone who plans to be a mechanic need to have the same set of skills as a programmer? The two jobs require completely different skill sets offered in high school. Because of this, there should probably be multiple types of diplomas. An issue with this is that they potentially won't mean anything, but they would allow people to get the skill sets they need without having to waste their time in other areas. They all should have 4 years of English, a semester of Health and another in Economics, and three years of History. Besides that, they should require classes that go towards certain career paths that people choose, while still having enough diversity that it would be easy for people to switch interests without spending too much money.
