This is over one GRADE. 7 freakin' percent! Life is unfair. Deal with it. If everyone sued everytime something went minutely wrong in their life we'd be spending every waking moment in court (either sueing someone or being sued). I would prefer this whinning dumb@ss to step into reality and not waste people's time and money w/a lawsuit possibly more idiotic than fat kids sueing McDonald's.

Yeah yeah. I'm sure prior to the McD's fat lawsuit it had been discussed and could be found using a search with the proper keywords.
This is just a point of using something that makes sense in the Title and if not, don't scream "repost!" when someone reposts it.
I'm guessing this suit will be thrown out (with prejudice, I hope), Delekta will have to settle for the A but will end up valedictorian anyway, and will get boo'ed giving his speech because no one wants to hear a success story from a punk.
i understand 7% is a lot and IMO he should sue if it was a result of changing schools and not giving him the proper grade
a kid a year ahead of me transferred schools from CA and they were on a letter grade system
he had all A's (which were the highest possible grade in his system) i think this was after a year or something
after transferring to my school which is on a point system all his A's were counted as 94's even though they should have been hundreds
in the end he ended up being in 2nd , a few hundredths of a point from being first
if he had those grades changed he would have been valedictorian easily
but in the end it didnt matter because he got into stanford, princeton, etc.
and the valedictorian ended up being rejected from princeton her dream school , i found that amusing
just because A+ ===> A doesnt matter to you doesnt mean it shouldnt matter to everyone

Think about it this way. The schools are doing a good job teaching him how to live in the real world. If you don't get something you want, sue!
you guys need to lay off the kid. Sure he's whining, sure life is unfair, and that's a lesson he needs to learn. But there are A LOT of benefits of being Valedictorian. My sister got so many thousands of dollars from some company in the state just for being number one in her class. A few percentage points, no matter how small, could be a difference of thousands of dollars.
7% ain't sh*t. Ask anyone who's transfered from one college to another and lost some, if not all, of their credit hours. This is just so dumb I can't believe someone is actually sueing over it.
The kid has the same freakin' grade, an "A." It's just that the new school's highest grade is an A+ not an A. Why doesn't the kid sue the old school for giving him an A and not an A+?
Argh...

so there you go: the kid's a whiny letigous, b!tch.
further to that, his parents property taxes will go up the following year because the district will have to budget in more money for subsequent lawsuits from over-zealous students/parents who don't like their grades.
yeah, this'll create a great prescedent.
