I was thinking, after our meeting yesterday, that I had once thought that grades were as vital a part of the educational practice as the heart or liver might be to the human body. My trip to Saint Ann's School in Brooklyn has led be to believe that grades may, in fact, be more like tonsils or the appendix.
I was wondering, were we in the position to do so, what kind of argument might we make to a school like Saint Ann's that might convince them to use grades, rankings and measurements?
Also came across this spoken word piece. Worth watching/listening to."Why I Hate School But Love Education"
