Bad Grades Encourage Drop Outs, So Get Rid of Bad Grades???

Now, who in their right mind thinks this is the real way to fix things? If more kids are dropping out, then the thing to do is focus more effort on those kids to help them accomplish more, not start giving them a "pass."

Honestly, there is a real simple solution for the education system. Get more teachers into the classrooms and limit class size to 20 students, tops. This will allow teachers to focus more on teaching and less on crowd control. It will also help ensure the students get the attention they need from their teachers.
