[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My children will never win this because they're Jewish and the DCPS calendar is based around Christian holidays. My friend's child will never get this because she has a couple days of chemo every month. It's a stupid, discriminatory award that makes kids feel bad for things they can't control.[/quote] Most awards are for things the kids can’t control. My kid with dyscalculia, dyslexia, and ADHD will never get the principals honor roll, despite working harder than his brother, who got that award easily. Awards that athletes get are often a result of athletic genes plus the luck of having the right teammates in a particular year, etc. [/quote] +1 I guess no more awards or contests or sports competitions lets just scrap everything.[/quote]
