Report Cards Online

from the is-it-better? dept

Apparently, schools are beginning to use the web to keep in touch with parents of schoolchildren. So, no more sending the kids' report cards home to be signed. They just upload it to the web. Of course, they can also upload all their test scores, so parents can know just about everything about their kid - which some of the students aren't too happy about. Though, considering how much more computer savvy a lot of kids are, I'm sure it won't take long for them to figure out ways to create fake web pages where their report cards show all As.
