[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think this anything to do with people being competitive with each other. I do think that parents are worried about their kids learning enough in elementary school to do well enough in high school and compete for college spots. [/quote]
Really?   The only way some elementary parents know how well their child is doing in school is by the report card? Don't they review their returned child's assignments to see how they are doing?

My 1st grade DD's teacher returns all completed homework/in class assignments every week with the grade.  By looking through those assignments, I am able to see how my DD is doing with her work.  I see her writing improving all year, I see that she needs help with spelling and I see that she is doing good in math.  I don't need to wait for the report card to tell me how she is doing - I see it with my very own eyes every single week that she is learning new material and doing well.

How can parents not get a sense of how their child is doing by reviewing their returned assignments?  Why are they just waiting for the report card?[/quote]
