A,b Or C

In some schools the teachers are frowned upon if they give a student a failing grade. They don't want the self-esteem of that student to drop because he or she made a bad grade. They want the students to be given a decent grade even if they did poorly on their assignment.

Sadly that idea of "Hold no Child Back" may help preserve some egos. But it devalues the efforts of the children who truly earn high grades. also kind of makes a person wonder if the cardiologist who is about to do surgery on you actually made good grades in med school or got passed, so he would not be denied his dream of being a doctor.

I agree, and I am currently in the process of getting a teaching certification through the college I am at after I graduate with my first degree. We have not talked a lot about NCLB. We talked about CHAMPs, but that about it.

My first C was in Orchestra :/. I'm glad I never really played well enough for it to be considered music =P. haha. It ended up being a blessing.

mainly A's, B's .. I just started getting C's.
Getting A's is usually a bad sign for me. I'm not being challenged enough. or...I'm workin' like a beast.
