[quote=Anonymous]The problem is that private schools in this area market themselves as a place to get a rigorous education. Parents, with the massive fees they are paying, expect a more transactional approach in that they pay for good grades. COVID exacerbated this problem because many schools did shift to handing out A's given the circumstances, but this has been a long shift. Now some schools are returning to the status quo and some are keeping up with the pretend to teach, pretend to learn approach where everyone gets an A. Teachers that give out all A's are beloved by all - parents, students, admin cause they deal with no complaints about them. The only people who don't like them are the teachers who have to teach those kids next - because they overwhelmingly don't know a thing yet have already received the feedback of an A that they have mastered the content. Any deviation from that A results in headaches for the teacher from the bully parents and the rest is history. [/quote]
