[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For example, her bio teacher will not round up 89.9. You have to earn your A-.[/quote] Is this OP? At DD’s school, they send a letter home each quarter that you get straight A’s (not A-). Then they do cum laude for juniors and seniors (note this is a national program with rules about how schools administer it in terms of number of students that can receive the award as a %of total students in the grade.) If your child is getting a 89.9, maybe they aren’t in the running for academic awards. I know it’s tough if you have an academic kid to not feel celebrated for academics the way other kids are for sports. With that said, in this area, there are so many super high academic achievers so it’s possible there are students just doing better than your child. My kid essentially had all As/A+s, but still had to wait until senior year for recognition. And once they get into college, you won’t care as much anymore. [/quote]
