I am convinced that socialism is steadily taking a grip on this country. The capitalistic mentality is frowned upon nowadays. It wouldn't shock me to see this in CA or NY, but it's pretty eye opening to see it here in AL. The 2nd amendment is becoming increasingly more important every day it seems

Might as well do away with the beauty pageants too. I’m not saying I find my sister attractive, but she got 2nd runner up to a girl with Down’s syndrome in the high school pageant.

What screwed that up is multiple valedictorians. How can there be more than one top person? When I was in school you had one. Now there can be a dozen or more.

If they’d do away with algebra then I could give them credit where it’s due. How heavy the brick will be when it hits some of these snowflakes later on in life. At some point adult happens.

If you have more than one kid with a GPA higher than 4.0 they should all get recognized especially out of a graduating class of 400 or more

Nah just the one with the highest GPA. If there is a tie do a tie breaker

If you have 2 kids with a 4.2 GPA how exactly do you decide which one is better?

They have an average grade score as well, not just GPA. Someone is ahead.

Either way. I stick to my point of any one who graduates with a gpa of 4.1 or higher should be recognized. That’s not handing out participation trophies it’s just recognizing people for hard work.

They are recognized already. It’s called a diploma.

You get a diploma for passing high school. A jack leg who barley passed with a 1.3 GPA shouldn’t get the same recognition as someone who worked their but off taking college level courses to make a 4.1 or higher. A diploma is a participation trophy we all received in life

I'm just shocked that you didn't win that trophy.
