[quote=Anonymous]Maybe I missed a comment on this, but Eastern varies their rewards throughout the school year. For a recent quarter, there was a special recognition party for any kid who'd improved their grades over the previous semester. They could have gone from a 1.0 to a 1.5 and they would have been recognized. They also have events for kids who are eligible, meaning they are eligible for sports and I think that's a 2.0. It's tricky, in a school population like that, to devise reognition that addresses everyone. This was one event out of many and I think the coverage has been a total overreaction.[/quote]
