Story: District nixes cash-for-grades fundraiser
The principal approved an idea that allowed students to pay for better grades. This is not a made up story. To off-set budget problems (and presumably poor grades), students could buy extra points on their tests. $20 can increase your score by 20 points! It was also learned that the district scratched "Morals and Ethics" from their lesson plans and replaced it with "The Art of Bribery." After hearing this story, I can only hope that our schools have finally reached rock bottom.
