公立学校,以及在较小程度上私立学校,存在一个严重的问题,那就是它们围绕着“最低共同标准”来构建。 整个目标是让那些勉强达到最低毕业标准的学生毕业。 在此之上没有等级之分。 对于那些真正想出类拔萃的学生,也没有区分。 如果在孩子们高中毕业后,有一种类似0-100的评分系统,那该有多好啊。 也许20分代表勉强达到毕业最低标准的人,而99分则代表像数学奥林匹克竞赛冠军那样的人。 也许50分代表大学毕业生?

A serious problem with public schools, and to a lesser extent private schools, is that they are built around the lowest common denominator. The whole goal is to get kids who can just barely pass over a minimum bar to graduate. There are no tiers above that. There is no differentiation for those who really want to excel. Wouldn't it be great if there were some sort of rating system 0 - 100 after kids finish high school. Maybe 20 would be someone who just met the minimum qualifications for graduation, while someone at 99 would be a math olympiad winner type of person. Maybe 50 would represent a college graduate?
