[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Grade inflation in this area is notorious, that’s why. [/quote] +1. It’s hard to take a school district seriously when it is has 200+ valedictorians at a single high school. Let alone that they don’t penalize grades for cheating. [/quote] The valedictorian thing has been going on here for at least four decades. It’s so emblematic of the deeper problem of not being able to tell parents “no.” You want option school for your child? Yes! You want accelerated math for your child? Yes! You want your child IDed as gifted? Sure! You want your child to be valedictorian? Why the hell not! Everyone is the smartest and APS and deserves the education they demand. To the detriment of the majority. [/quote]
