Reality Check

Dalton High student José Beltran, 16, puts up a shot from the “college graduate” line during a basketball exercise during “Reality Check” at the school Thursday. Students were grouped into college graduate, high school graduate and high school dropout categories and allowed to shoot from closer distances to the hoop depending on their levels of education with the baskets representing quality, high-paying jobs. Reality Check allows Dalton High freshmen to learn about real costs of living and experience what it’s like to pay bills and make financial decisions.
