D.C. Area Schools Eliminate Failing Grades

[Islandborn]

At West Potomac High School, taking F off the grade books

These younger generations are gonna be the weakest and most unprepared for the real world yet. Pathetic.

Guess what kids..... when you get older ,your boss at your real job doesn't care if you "tried your best" on your work.....you don't do your job well....you GET FIRED and replaced by someone who will do your job better.

This falls into the same sappy liberal playbook as not keeping score during kids sports games.....WHAT A JOKE. The real world is what we call "competitive" people.....my 6 year old daughter knows that and is being prepared. If she does bad in her work......SHE GETS AN F and knows it....and knows she will be grounded. In ten years I bet they hand out trophys to every kid in class after a test....even for the 6 kids that failed. The dumbing down of America.

you can thank Bush's no child left behind for that. they kicked out all the kids who were doing poorly so it wouldn't bring down their funding and got rid of F's for the same reason. okay, now go and howl about how the libs are to blame for all of this.

Neo-Cons are pretty much the same as most Libs now adays any way. I mean they're different, but only superficially. Soviet Socialism and National Socialism were different, but were both god-awful.

I feel the same way about the democrats and republicans.

I need grandpa simpson to help me fight the Nazi-Commies.
