[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who on earth cares as long as they get [b]stellar grades?[/b] Raise them to prioritize their academic potential and you won't have much trouble with skipping school. Ironically, in my little corner of MoCo, high schoolers skip classes because they're inundated with deadlines for other classes and stay home to do the work!!![/quote] you can't just rely on grades and "assume" they are learning and mastering the subject. grade inflation now days is off the chart. i don't even know schools give out Cs any more. [/quote] I was using shorthand, PP. Any parent should know when their child is phoning it in versus doing all APs and holding down a demanding extra-curricular schedule. And as I pointed out, my concern is more with overworked kids focusing on the Ivy League than with disinterest in school. I find it odd to worry about the latter when the former is really doing a number on the high schoolers I know. [/quote]
