Inflating Grades Response

Cypress Bay may be known for it's huge number of students, talented and hardworking, with a huge faculty to match. But no matter which high school you attend, you'll find it's always the same. The end of the year approaches & the kids are supposed to really work hard till the end of the year comes. Yet out of thousands of kids, only a few kids have shown their grades are dropping.
In my English class, none of the kids realize that Stoklosa means every word. The kids just don't focus hard enough & their constantly struggling. Most kids tend to slack off & care less about the work. When we work on our computers, I'll bet half the class don't know what to write so they copy form a person's best essay. The kids are constantly struggling, it's crazy! Even when a handful of kids work hard on their work, they find that no one else is willing to follow their example. It's rather sad but it's true.
If you though inflation in the community is bad, you should see the kids grades. It's like my class doesn't have the motivation to prepare for important dates. They claim they have hard time catching up to reading, only to discover that their not even trying to catch up. It's like the class really needs tutoring like from Sylvain in order to get better. I know not everyone in the class is poor, I just don't know who they are.
The end of the year approaches fast so I can only hope the kids can pull off a miracle before the end of the year. Kids are coming to school everyday with Cs & Ds when they should have As & Bs on their report cards. It's not like the kids are completely dumb; however, they really need to set their mind to the task at hand. Unless they change their ways, they'll be slackers for the rest of their lives. The world is not looking for slackers. We look for kids who are going to change our future, to build a better world & ultimately improve the country. If we can't rely on our new generation of kids, our world is doomed. That's why the kids really must work hard in order to reach the passing grades. Until then, break a leg!
