  3. ‘Support required’: Calgary eliminates letter grades for students up to grade nine in an attempt to save children from failure

    The Calgary Board of Education is moving to save children from failure. Under a proposed new marking scheme, the board is to relabel such students as “support required.” If they improve, their skills will be upgraded to “emerging.’’

    The Calgary board is doing away with letter-grade assessments for children between Kindergarten and Grade 9, and is also eliminating personalized comments. On a draft of the new report card protocol, traditional letter grades and percentages have been replaced with a four-point system: “exemplary,” “evident,” “emerging” or, “support required.”

  4. This is someting that has bothered me for a while.
    Sun News takes a look at it,but not close enough.
    Judy Srgo had to pay back 60G for a mortgage scam a few years back.
    What she did was buy a condo in Ottawa.Yeah her,no one else.
    She then sold that condo to her daughter(s)and then rented it back off her daughter(s) for about $1,200 a month,which was about the same as the mortgage payment. The rental payment was paid by you and me.
    Once we paid the mortgage/rental/entitlement ,mom and daughter(s) owned the place. Pretty smooth,until she got caught.
    WWJD? I think he would forgive and forget,he’s like that with Liberals.

  15. It begins. Obama sets up the shake down. Don’t let anyone tell you it is a price we must pay when all we have to do is wait a little longer. No rush. Demand for oil is not likely to decrease any time soon.
