Eighth grade students have begun siging up for the Wisconsin Covenant program, which guarantees a middle schooler college admission in the state, if the teen finishes high school, maintains a “B” average and has good conduct, and takes college prepatory courses. Proponents said it could mean an increase in the number of students entering college in Wisconsin in the future.
But beyond college admission, questions remain over what students will get, in exchange for their guarantee of good grades and clean living.
