[quote=Anonymous]I really and truly do not understand what the problem is with having "Proficient" as a grade. It is like substituting "A" for "P" -- so what? pro·fi·cient (pr-fshnt) adj. Having or marked by an advanced degree of competence, as in an art, vocation, profession, or branch of learning. n. Is your child learning...is your child mastering the material? Newsflash -- the grades are all just symbols...made up... Somebody made up the system using "A", "B" , etc. Someone made this up. Just because it says proficient...doesn't mean they have dummied down the curriculum. They are just using a different symbol. The system is by no means perfect...but to be all up in arms because you don't like the way proficient sounds...well that is ridiculous to me.[/quote]
