An inordinate amount of libs are plagiarists for this very reason.

There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

My son was always on the "A" honor roll or  "A-B" honor roll up through the eighth grade. High school(grades 9-12)  here doesn't have an honor roll :censored:....they did when I was a teenager.

They did away with the honor roll here also because they didn't want to offend the under achieving students.

Yeah I heard about that...Unless a child has a mental handicap(down syndrome) or autistic, every child has potential. There were three levels in my hs. level a, for kids who learned quickly, b kids who were the majority of students and c level, kids who struggled(supposedly). Some of these kids were getting a's at the c levels and of course getting on honor roll. (these kids were smart, but didn't want to apply themselves)

Not applying themselves is what the biggest problem is. I was like that when I was a kid. I never cared until I got into college and realized that my grades had to be good to get anywhere.

Some thing else to look at is this: Statistics show that kids who get 'C's' in School, do better in college than kids who get straight 'A's' in school. The reason being that the kids who got the 'C's' try harder than the ones who got the 'A's' ...
