[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is your child in public or private school? Is the school full of high achieving students? It is now hard to get C's in some public high schools because of grade inflation. [/quote] This makes me laugh every time I read it - C's are handed out like candy at our top FCPS public. A's are very hard to come by.[/quote] Same at our FCPS HS. Some teachers don’t even give As “as a matter of principle, because there’s always room for improvement.”[/quote] +2 It's ridiculous how stingy the teachers are with As, even when a student has worked hard and deserves it. Group projects are also the WORST. If one participant doesn't do his/her part, then the other students have to suffer with a bad grade too. IMO, group projects need to be eliminated.[/quote]
