[quote=Anonymous]My son is a 6th grader at Tilden Middle. I have to say he really had to work for his straight As this quarter. He studied every day, stayed on top of his tests, of which there were several each week, and I helped quiz him on his Chinese (which I don't know at all, but that's a different story) before every test. He is a fairly bright kid and is a pretty good writer, yet one week, when he got too into his computer games and neglected his homework, his grades dipped almost immediately. Of course, math curriculum is not nearly as challenging as I would like, but I think overall it is unfair to say that As are awarded for no reason at all. I see a direct correlation between the level of effort and the results. It would take a very very talented kid to pull straight As without doing anything. [/quote]
