What ever happened to the “A+” grade in schools?
Favorite Answer
You see, the educational system of the United States is corrupted by lawsuits and funding and the All Children Left Behind Act. You see, many parents are paranoid about anything and everything that happens to their mentally disabled kids who don’t know what 2+2 is at the age of 35. With their overprotective-ness, they have to think their child is perfect, and if they’re perfect, they have to have good grades. But then, little Johnny is completely stupid and fails every question on his TAKS test, so automatically their parents have to sue even though Johnny got everything WRONG.
And with the threat of a lawsuit, a school system has to stop giving out good grades that mean something. So we remove A+ with nothing or just remove word grades all together and replace them with the need for self-confidence and replacing A+-F- with stickers of puppies, rainbows, unicorns and hippos. Mostly hippos. That way mentally retarded children are happy. And parents don’t sue.
So it’s not because of unpopularity. It’s because the educational system is corrupt. No Child Left Behind hasn’t done anything for kids except keep them in 2nd grade until the age of 45. Teaching the same damned children for 44 years. With the idea that kids can’t be wrong and are always perfect, you have to remove the only true sign of the standardized testing grades.
Don’t remove me. It’s true. And opinionated. Question Normalcy and Question the System.
Oh and plus some schools that have good children have plus grades. Just not all. Mostly universities.
