Re: Grades and Student Travel, Etc
I'm thinking about how the original post was made regarding an article that Mr. Mike Martus, teacher, wrote about FRC Team 47, Chief Delphi. It is an excellent article. Teams vary in how they are run/managed and how they achieve measures of success. Chief Delphi is one of our respected Hall of Fame teams and we don't have very many of those.

If I had questions regarding an aspect of the article, such as the grading decisions and how that impacts travel to events and other aspects of the team, I would contact Mr. Martus and ask him to explain or discuss the aspects with me that I find troubling or have difficulty understanding, rather than distorting them to this point in this thread. The truth is that teams develop ways to grow and achieve success and it works. And school academics is an integral part of it.
