　　Question：My ninth-grade art teacher doesn't give any grade above 94％ because, she says, "There's always room for improvement．" In previous years, I earned a 99％ and a 100％．The 94％ I received this term does not reflect the hard work that I put into this course．Because of her "improvement" theory, I got a lower grade than I deserve．Is her grading philosophy(原則)morally correct?

　　Answer：Your teacher's grading system may be unwise, but it is not morally wrong．A teacher deserves wide latitude in selecting the method of grading that best promotes learning in her classroom ; that is, after all, the prime function of grades．It is she who has the training and experience to make this decision．

　　You can criticize her methodology．A 100 need not imply that there is no possibility of improvement, only that a student successfully completed the course work．A ninth grader could get a well-earned 100 in English class but still has a way to go before he writes as well as Jane Austen．What's more, grades are not only an educational device(手段)but are also part of a screening system to help assign(分配)kids to their next class or program．By capping her grades at 94 while most other teachers grade on a scale that tops out at 100, your teacher could risk making a student lose a chance of getting a scholarship or getting into a top college．

　　What it is wrong to condemn(指責)her for is overlooking your hard work．Your hard work is worthy of encouragement, but effort does not equal accomplishment．If scholars suddenly discovered that Rembrandt had dashed off The Night Watch in an afternoon, it would still be The Night Watch．

　　I could spend months sweating over my own "paintings", but I'd produce something you wouldn't want to hang in your living room or your garage．

　　One feature(特點)of a good grading system is that those measured by it generally regard it as fair and reasonable－not the case here．Strong feeling of anger is seldom an aid to education．And so your next step should be to discuss your concerns with your teacher or the principal．
