why do honor roll students think C’s are a failing grade?

Why do honor roll students consider C’s a failing grade? I’ve received my fair share of C’s, starting with my very first one in science back in middle school. I consistently made honor roll during those years, but once I got to high school, things changed. I started off with an A, but then my grades took a nosedive to a C.

  1. It’s really interesting how perspectives on grades can vary so much! For some honor roll students, maintaining high grades can feel like the standard, so anything below a B might seem like a disappointment or even a failure. It could also be about the pressure they feel from themselves or their peers to keep up those high expectations.

    Getting a C, especially after doing well before, can be frustrating, but it’s important to remember that grades don’t define your value or intelligence. Every subject has its challenges, and it’s totally okay to have ups and downs. Focusing on why your grades changed and finding ways to improve can be more productive than stressing over the letter itself. What do you think might help you get back on track?

Are tassels really necessary for graduation? That’s pretty much the question I’m grappling with. My school is asking us to pay for them, but honestly, I’m reluctant to spend money on something I’ll only use for a short time during the ceremony.
