This is a petition for students and parents to sign to stop this unsuccessful grading system and switch back to the grading system that all colleges recognize.
-------Arguments--------
From district: they say "to many students were being under served in this school district."

Response from a teacher(identity was asked to be hidden): " I believe that the school district provided adequate services to all students and parents with the available resources given."

From district: "This grading will add transparency for students, parents, and teachers."

Response from a teacher(identity was asked to be hidden):" This is a complete Lie."

----Reasons why stop-----
-You could essentially get 90% of you work done and pass but still fail the class.
-Creates confusion between parents, kids, and teacher.
- Doesn't show the actual grade that the student gets.
-FOR SENIORS-
The system Prevents students apply for scholarships early; when the scholarships have the most money and the chances of getting it are higher, early in the year the STB system cannot generate a "letter grade", the grading system that the majority of colleges grade.
