Absolutely terrible idea. Whole generations whose only thought is how much money they are going to get by doing something.
When are they going to learn how to work together, instead of competing against each other all the time?
I think it's a good idea, high school is stressfull, uses up most of your day, some students actually have to work while in highschool, so being paid for attending classes isn't that bad of an idea, i had to quit high school to get a job, because transport, books, all added up to a lot of money spent, and in the end of the year the books go to the trash, and here you will have to spend 400€ + just on books...
And also there are those ''rich kids'' that their parents buy trips to ''goldville'' and stupid overpriced game consoles when they get good grades, this could make the high school drop out kids think twice...
Ive heard all sorts of stories about Italy being horribly corrupt, is it ture?the solution to that is free schooling and books, plus admitting a student or giving him/her a grant based on his/her merit, a willing student will want to learn more and thats a far better pay off than cash, it will build much more than giving handouts, I understand your predicament as I studied in Italy where school books are not free and they change them every year because the book company gives the tracher a handout for using their books
Well, I would just see if I could download them from somewhere and put them on a cheap laptop.and so you cannot buy second hand books as they change each year. I was one of the few that had all the books especially the electronics ones.

It is admitting we have failed to motivate students.
As I see it this is responsibility shared in various degrees by everyone.
Most kids are clueless by our design, or lack of it.
You forgot modest.I was very smart and more than capable of thinking for myself and I spent far more time learning at my pace which was considerably faster than most others my age.
Ah yes, NCLB, the "brain" child of George W Bush.This no child left behind garbage should be dropped and about 1/4 of the kids in this country should be made to feel so horribly ashamed of how dumb they are
