[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are you paying them for each A they get?[/quote] OP here. It is embarrassing. It was $10 an A!!! I know that it is ridiculous, but I honestly didn't think they were capable. I saw only one or two low As per marking period before the deal. Now, we owe my son $300 for this marking period alone. [b]My daughter is due more than that, she squeezes out As now like she is printing money.[/b] [/quote] This made me laugh out loud! Thanks for the great chuckle! I didn't finish the thread yet, but I wanted to suggest that you could do a combination of paying for larger chunks of work (quarter grades, then eventually aggregate GPA), and splitting the payment between cash in hand and "savings" for college (which could just be a running tally in a spreadsheet.)[/quote]
