theoretically this is true if the parents don't do the work for them which is an endemic problem. So fricken obvious when you see some of the projects and writing samples. :roll:[/quote]

I heard this.  A question...  The grade is somewhat important in the 2nd grade, because it's used in a way for admission to the AAP program.
[b]However once the kid is in AAP, what's the need for parents doing school work for their kids for good grade?[/b]To me, the education, learning, independence, etc itself become more important than getting good grades.  
Are the grades from elementary school  used for like admission to Thomas Jefferson later or something?

A great question. Yet my son overheard a mom who was carryinging in the tri-board poster and set up for her daughter's power point presentation say: "I was up late last night working on this."  This is 4th grade. :roll:  The teacher eventually stopped sending writing projects home at all because she wanted the kids to do them in class in order to see what they could do for a change - without parental involvement.
