Letter to the Editor: Grading

What is the problem with A through F? A score of 100, A+; 95, A; 90, A-; 89, B+; 85, B; 80, C+; 79, C, and 75, D. Any lower score was failure.

I may be a little off on those numbers, but not that far. Is that too hard for teachers to figure out or are they being pressed by school officials to make certain some students are being unfairly graded because mom and dad believe their sons or daughters bring home bad grades?

If this grading is not the problem, the Tulsa World needs to give a better understanding what the problem is.
