Academic Language Written Assessment Week 30

"D" grades should not be eliminated. For example, kids seem to INTERACT more in school when they realize that they are failing. This shows that, "D" grades serves as a warning to the student to get more on top of things. This also shows that, the kids benefit from the warning instead of just falling straight to a "F". In addition, having "D" grades would throw off people even more than school already does. The alphabet does not skip the letter "D" so why should grades?
