The Grading System (Score 1)

While I understand how some students do not have interests in math and therefore don't want to take it, but I have a problem when schools are encouraging them to drop those classes. The kids do it to have a better GPA and the schools do it so their average GPA is higher. There is something wrong there. I disagree with a grading system in general (this is not because I fail, in fact I got all A's). The purpose of schools is to educate kids. The purpose of education is make sure that we have all the knowledge necessary is succeed in life. Grade school education is supposed to give students general knowledge so that they may choose to specialize in whatever they want. Encouraging kids to take "easy" classes just so they and the school has a higher GPA is just a way of the school getting profit. It seems that greed and ambition is invading even our schools. Schools, like churches, shouldn't be made or run to garner a profit but rather to teach in whatever they are supposed to.
