In order to engage on this, I really need to understand what you mean by "their inflated grades".[/quote]

Public schools are the ones with inflated grades. [/quote]
Sorry to bust your bubbles, but no. Grade inflation is 3x higher in private schools.

[quote]Actually, they said, the upward creep is most pronounced in schools with large numbers of white, wealthy students. And its especially noticeable in private schools, where the rate of inflation was about three times higher than in public schools.[/quote][/quote]

Out of date. That’s pre-pandemic, and everything has changed post-pandemic. Now publics are the ones with vastly inflated grades, because teachers were under massive pressure not to fail anyone during virtual learning while private schools were back in person. [/quote]
