[quote=Anonymous]http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/education/one-of-nations-largest-school-districts-ditches-high-school-final-exams/2015/09/08/49cf5810-561e-11e5-b8c9-944725fcd3b9_story.html I totally understand. This is institutionalized cheating. I mean, how else can you explain how students who "earn" straight A's in the quarters, fail Math semester exams - even when the bar is so low? This will help kids at both ends of the spectrum - the entitled kids who are used to grade inflation and those kids who can never bridge the achievement gap. So, what does it mean for those who have worked hard at school? 1600 on the new SAT? And 18 APs each? Maybe SAT will become most important? Perhaps it will include Calculus now? One can only hope.[/quote]
