The first strategy for being debt free is college excel in high school. This strategy leads me to believe that college readiness classes should start in the ninth grade. The ninth grade is one of the most important years of a persons life because it lays the foundation for your GPA early and for you behavior in high school. Many students usually do bad in the ninth grade because they do not fully realize that after high school is college. Like they know that one day they will go to high school but they are not fully aware that everything they do in ninth grade will affect where you go to college. I did not really think about college in the ninth grade, my grades weren't good in the ninth grade. Now that I am in the 12th grade all I think about is I am going to raise my kid. My kids are going to be learning SAT words before they learn small simple words. They are gonna do elementary school and high school the same way college is done. If they have 45 minutes of a math class they are going to be at home studying and reviewing that math for an hour an ten minutes. Things like that so they are prepared for college and doing good in school becomes natural to them.
You have to make sure that you don't go overboard! Make it fun or else your kids will hate learning, which will go against everything you are trying to accomplish.
