[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How can they expect high school kids to get straight As AND take the MOST rigorous courses in ALL core subjects AND still be somewhat normal, social and not a nervous nut job?? Sounds like a way to encourage cheating out of fear of not making the cut. Teaches them how to game the system. Give me a class full of kids that are excellent in some subjects and decent in others. I fear we are creating a generation of grade grubbing, burned out, back stabbing neurotic robots. [/quote] Problematic for sure.[/quote] Teacher here. Someone’s going to write sour grapes. The burnout risk is real. At the end of a school year, I’ve found the bright kids who don’t always do their work are still thinking and problem solving. Many of the most diligent stare in exhaustion.
