Maine School Becomes MSATP Loophole to Bypass the Mississippi Exit Exam.
The North Atlantic Regional High School in Maine has released a new web site guiding Mississippi high school seniors around the consequences of failing the MSATP exit exams.
Maine has no required exit exam.
The administrator of the school, Steve Moitozo, says, "When Exit Exams are used against the student, that is unfair.
A student may have done everything required to graduate (perfect attendance, passed every course, done all the homework, have a passing GPA, earned all the credits, etc.), but if that same student cannot pass EVERY section of this one massive test, the student is denied a high school diploma.
That is not fair, but it is the law in over 25 states."But it is NOT the law in Maine.
Moitozo's high school in Maine is a state-authorized, fully accredited private school. Recently high school seniors victimized by high school exit exams have found this Maine high school, transferred their credits, and earned their diplomas.

National Legal Debt Centers, Inc., Helping Consumers Avoid Bankruptcy
Bankruptcy is the last resort in trying to eliminate debt. The majority of people who file for bankruptcy later say they wish they had found an alternative method of resolving their problems and would not do it again if they had the chance. Even so, unscrupulous collectors and the high pressure tactics applied by creditors eager to collect their profits are driving people into the bankruptcy courts in record numbers. And last year bankruptcy filings were at historic highs.Most people do not realize the difference between the various types of bankruptcy and could easily find themselves paying back a large proportion of their debt anyway, forced by the courts to make those payments. Some are even mandated into credit counseling programs and forced into a lengthy repayment plan.
So they wind up with a bankruptcy and repay the debts anyway!Although some types of bankruptcy may get rid of unsecured debts completely and help stop foreclosure on your home, stop garnishments by creditors...
