663: Pupil Progression Plan
Education Alternative Services and Grade Inflation
Schools in Hillsborough County, Florida, are banning the term "dropout" in favor of "education alternative services" to remove negative stigmas. Meanwhile, Orange County implements a "pupil progression plan" where students cannot receive a grade lower than 50, even for failing work. The hosts compare this to the 100-point wine rating scale where nothing is truly rated poorly.
