My Grades Determine My Future (A)

I agree with Matt totally. The grading scales in schools keep kids worried too much about the grades they get, rather than having them let the learning sink in or become who they want to be because of some other reason. When kids get bad grades on papers it knocks them down, and eventually after many bad papers they just can't get back up which can ruin their career because of today's societies standards. In high school, I believe the problem starts with the unenthusiastic teachers we see so often in the classrooms. The ones that give no extra help and don't care how many kids fail. They need to be changed first. They have had the biggest impact on me. But these teachers don't end your career then and there. Job recruiters and college interviewers deny kids left and right because of the bad grades in high school. Interviewers and recruiters of jobs and colleges should look more of who the kids are not what they made of high school. Kids in high school should be allowed to soar to new heights, to find what career they are passionate about rather being tapped in the cage called the grading scale.
