[quote=all][quote=spdrun]Wait, so students get credit for giving the teacher something which their parents PAID for?(!) Wouldn’t that result in wealthier students getting higher grades — poorer students might borrow the book or want to re-sell it after they’re done. Sounds pretty discriminatory and bizarre.[/quote]
As bizarre as a 3rd grader coming home with ‘what does my teacher like to receive for her birthday’ writeup?[/quote]
I believe you. I don’t care anymore. We’ve already paid for the yearbook, sr pics, cap and gown, homecoming, 2 SAT tests, SAT test prep and thousands more for “extracurricular activities” this year. There is still prom and likely a few other things left. Eventually, my kid will move a tassel from one side of their head to the other and then will be gone.
The public schools in CA can do whatever they want, as far as I’m concerned.
I’m giving myself essentially the same advice I gave Pigg ER when he stated here that he pre-paid his MR but was disgusted with how his contribution to his CFD(s) might end up being spent.
