Should students get paid for good grades?

LOL that made my day no you shouldn’t get paid because it’s something you should learn and half too

The whole concept of kids being paid for good grades was foreign to me. When I was a lad I was expected to do well in school because I wanted to learn and succeed in life.

I worked in bike shops in the 80’s and I noticed that every few months kids came in with quite a bit of money. Then someone mentioned that they received $20 for every ‘A’ on their report card.

I’m not really sure what values this is intended to teach.

Nope, the student already benefits enough when they get good grades, even though it doesn’t always seem that way, it will eventually when you have a good paying career due to getting those grades.

In college you do get paid through good grades by scholarships.

yea that would probaly help get kids to bring their grades up and do harder in school

You do. Its called “Keys” money. You usually dont know about it until your in college.

I think that its okay for a child to make a deal with their parents that if they get high grades the parent should pay them. it satisfies both parties. but then again this is kindof a mind of a teeenager. I’m being a lot more realistic though. :p
