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

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

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

Kind of an oxymoron ain't it. My opinions and comments are my own. They do not reflect the position or political opinions of Aldeer or any of the Aldeer administration.
