[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good. The cords are expensive and mean nothing.[/quote] Why does it mean nothing to get good grades in multiple AP classes, get over a 4.0 GPA, complete service hours, be in National Honor Society, etc.? I haven't been to a FCPS graduation, but do they actually announce all these things or print them in the program? Is there a program? If not, they are at least a visible way to acknowledge hard work and success. I think it's crazy to do away with all of that. We already don't have valedictorians or class rank, which is a real problem on college applications. [/quote] So you just want to be able to show off that you have a smart kid who joined a lot of clubs? Shouldn't the knowledge that your child achieved all of this be enough?[/quote]
