[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I might be the cause of this thread. I complained to admin about 4 or 5 years that my daughter's grades were too high; her ERBs are 7 to 9s, so she's bright. But what the heck am I paying the school for if they cannot challenge this child. She should absolutely not get 100 in anything!!! All her scores are above 95, which is ridiculous. I told them there should only be 2 maybe 3 As per class. How else are the colleges going to differentiate the kids? Especially with this move against SAT/ACTs. Now my little one is coming through. I don't have ERBs yet but her WPPSI was 140. She has exactly 0 As. [/quote] Once up on a time, we accepted that kids were getting As because they were doing the work they should be doing and doing it well. Now it means the work must be beneath them. Some people think smart kids have to suffer to "prove themselves," and they are literally destroying the fabric of our childrens' lives. [/quote]
