What the Expert Says:

You want to provide your daughters with the best possible options for their future. It's difficult to answer this questions without more information, but I would recommend talking with the school counselor about what choices they have. GED is a route to take when students cannot complete high school by age 21 or need to move on. At this point, your daughters may not complete high school since they are below grade level and need extra support.

Community colleges offer many career and technology program that would be viable career routes.
