[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yesterday my kids school held an award ceremony (the umpteenth one this year) and the same 10 kids keep getting awards for their good grades, that's wonderful.  I'm sure they will be getting awards and recognition for years to come on their ability to memorize and regurgitate information.

I wonder when we will be giving awards for the nice kid, or the kid who came back from hospitalization and worked to get Bs, or just generally other kids.

SO glad to be moving out this area where if you don't get middle school straight As, you are basically failing.[/quote]

Funny how you think this is unique to LCPS.

Good luck.[/quote]

Also not a new thing.
I grew up in the Richmond area (graduated high school in the mid-90s), and all of the school systems down there (Henrico, Hanover, Chesterfield) awarded the top performers.  Always.  There were no awards for the "average" kids just chugging along doing their best, unless you count perfect attendance.
Not sure what you're looking for OP, but this isn't new, or confined to LCPS.
