[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Publics are like this. We can’t even announce honor roll any more because we might hurt people’s feelings. We can’t rank students. [/quote] Ranking students doesn’t even make sense. How could you possibly need that information. [/quote] It was done for decades. They still use Latin honors so why not just rank. It’s like we can’t acknowledge the hard work put in. [/quote] Who’s to say which student put in the hardest work? There can be ten students who are separated by .1 gpa. There’s also the brilliant hardworking artists or students focused on the humanities who don’t take all of the APs just so they can get to a top college. It’s like trying to compare apples and oranges. We’ve come a long way over the decades in understanding there are many types of intelligence, all having value. It’s an outdated system. [/quote]
