[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP sounds highly credible, in spite of the multiple spelling errors. I would not want any of my kids to endure such arbitrary torture during there senior year. Why have college students grade something that large and important? Sounds like teachers are just passing the buck. I hate this sort of thing.[/quote]

If OP is for real, she is demonstrating horrible parenting in a number of ways.  First and foremost, she has provided easily identifiable information about her daughter, if the story is true.  She is also completely ignoring the purpose of education.  The goal of such a project is to teach the process, not to get a particular grade.  OP is discrediting ths process and undermining her child's education.  Unfortunately, this is how poorly educated parents often end up with poorly educated children.[/quote]

Yes, well. The parent is understandably upset and kudos to her. There needs to be a forum for discussing this type concern. OP's child is NOT easily identifiable from the postas there are several parents that judge the papers, several that were juniors last year and dozens that probably got "B"'s. I see nothing to suggest that OP is poorly educated. A few spelling errors while writing a highly emotional post is not a litmus test for someone's level of education PP. You sound like an insufferable sort--I hope you're not a teacher otherwise I would guess you've snuffed the wind out of many an imperfect student's sails--you sound like you enjoy that sort of thing.  My husband is a thoracic surgeon and a product of NYC school system and he cannot spell to save his life. His brain just doesn't work that way.[/quote]
