Pursue further education or learn a trade.

When I was in 10th grade, I was doing math/history/english work that I had learned in 5th/6th. It was a joke.

IMO: Schooling up to 9th grade should be basic education, and 10th-12th should be about developing skills for jobs and maybe common sense if it is possible to be taught.
To be honest, I learned a lot in high school. It's all what you put into it, and I think it was a good foundation to pursue other areas of interest, whatever they may be. College/tech school is for further developing certain skills. But without a high school education, it's a lot harder to learn those when you don't have the basics down. ~
