Do you think your grades are important?

Asked at Asked at Free State High School on December 15, 2008

“I think grades are important because I think if you work hard in school, then that reflects what you can do in life.”

“Yes. It shows your work ethic and what you’re capable of doing, but it doesn’t always prove how smart you are.”

“Yes, so you can graduate.”

“I think it’s good that we get grades because it’s more of a motivation to keep doing well in school.”

“It’s more about getting to college with grades, so I guess it is important.”

“I think grades are important, but they’re not everything. There’s definitely more to measure a student by than just grades.”
