Now as most of you should know. KICA is a new grading system forced on to the St. Michael\'s College school staff, and students. Although it is created to aid students in individual learning strategies, it has become a hassle for many teachers, and a mark reducer for many students. This group is here for those of you who have been harmed by KICA to speak out. Even if you are in grades 7, 8, or 9, Keep in mind how this new unnecessary system will be affecting our seniors, who need to maintain good marks for university. Although some of may feel KICA is improving your mark, realize that you are walking on a thin line by not signing this petition. Any test may reduce your mark drasticaly despite doing fairly well. We already have support from multiple teachers, and we would also ask that you please rally support from your teachers, as they may feel the same as you. Don\'t forget this new system is a hassle for them to. Their will also be a written petition going around the school before exams, and after the break so keep you eyes open. Sign this petition if you disagree with KICA. This petition is here to show administration the opinions of the staff, and students be them good, or bad.

The administration at St. Michael's is still hiding behind their desks while our grades suffer under this KICA disaster. I am collecting stories from students and teachers right now to prove exactly how much damage this broken system is causing. Stay alert for the paper version hitting hallways soon because we are not backing down until they scrap this garbage.

The sheer number of people backing this shows that the administration can no longer ignore how KICA is wrecking our performance. We have built real momentum and it is time to force them to answer for this broken system.

it is just so unfair that one or two bad test scores can tank your whole average now. get rid of it.

Ridiculous waste of time for the teachers too. They have enough to do without dealing with this grading garbage.

KICA is actually a nightmare. Trying to get into uni with these marks is impossible now. Fix it.

This system makes no sense. My grades have dropped so much since they started this and it is stressing everyone out.
