[quote=Anonymous]We are finding that the academics seem to be getting harder since the pandemic and the teacher leniency is gone(which is a good thing). Our graduate(last year) took similar classes as the above poster shared. A few Honors freshman year working up to APs and Honors through senior year. Got into T50s just fine. Sports, strong extras,job etc. When applying to college we were told that schools looked more for rigor than the actual GPA(and some schools ignore weighted GPA). Now our HS freshman, who is equally hardworking and intelligent, seems to not be doing as well. Had to drop down to a regular in one class, has a few A's more B's only one Honor class now and is working very hard. Athlete and one other extra. Maybe its the difference in teachers, but it just seems to be more workload and harder assignments and tests in general.[/quote]
