For $20, kids can buy a better grade

Selling candy didn't raise much money last year, so a Goldsboro middle school is selling grades. A $20 donation to Rosewood Middle School will get a student 20 test points - 10 extra points on two tests of the student's choosing. That could raise a B to an A, or a failing grade to a D.

Ridiculous! The grade the student received is the grade the student earned! This should not be able to happen. They are setting students up to fail by putting in there mind that they can "buy" their way out of any problems they may have.
