[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a special needs child who has been barred from sports because he is incapable of a 2.0. Even an IEP does not override this requirement. He would have benefited greatly from being able to participate and every single team member agrees. So, I am all for getting rid of it. It’s discriminatory plain and simple. [/quote] No it isn't. You shouldn't be practicing for hours after school if you can not even keep a C average. Stop trying to streamline everyone crying discriminatory if we don't. Then come in and change the minimums because your kid is streamlined. Unbelievable. [/quote] THIS!!!!![/quote] You just posted THIS against streamlining!!! OMG![/quote] I posted this because I am sick of everyone wanting to be a part of something and then everyone that gets to be part of something wants to get things changed instead of conforming to what they initially wanted to be a part of. They add more kids to compacted math because it is not fair to the kids that aren't in it. Then they dumb down the curriculum and the kids are failing IM and backing out to retake Math6. They start the HIGH cohort group in middle school and everyone complains that it isn't fair so now they are mixed with all the students and basically just have extra homework now. Streamlining kids is fine, if they can handle the class and the requirements. Lowering the requirements or now a GPA for sports activity by saying it isn't fair because the child is not ever capable of a 2.0 because they can't handle the streamline class, is ridiculous.
