[quote=Anonymous]This can backfire. Some kids will choose classes to maximize money received. So, kid will sign up for AP Environmental Science, which is an AP so will net more money with your system, and avoid AP Physics C (or whatever it's called now) because they are less likely to ace it. Other kids will cheat . Yes, some kids cheat anyway, but if being honest will cost them a lot of money, you're incentivizing it, IMO. If you have more than one kid, it becomes more complex. My parents paid us a modest amount of money for a "good" report card. My sibling was several years ahead of me in school. Sib got the same amount of money for worse grades. I just accepted that was because higher grade was tougher than mine. It took a few years before I realized it was really because my sib struggled in school and I excelled, so I had to get better grades than sib did because a "good" report card for me was different than a "good" report card for sib.
