School District Drops 'D' Grades

Posted by samzenpus on from the pass-fail-education dept.

Students in one New Jersey school district will no longer be able to squeak by in class after the Morris County School Board approved dropping the D grade. Beginning in the fall students who don't get a C or higher will get an F on their report card. "I'm tired of kids coming to school and not learning and getting credit for it," said Superintendent Larrie Reynolds in a Daily Record report.

    Check IGN- some of my favorite reviews there are when they give a game a 2 or lower.

    That list includes some games which flopped simply because the target demographic was not aware of how great they really were:

    Psychonauts
    Grim Fandango
    The Last Express
