Honestly the grading system is seriously flawed and instead of fixing it they're hoping the rest of the state will follow. There are no deadlines which isn't how life works even if you overlook how college works. There is a huge push for only traditional 4 year colleges. Students who choose the military or technical schools are looked down upon. They do well in sports but there isn't diversity in it, only soccer, basketball, and baseball/softball.

I like the level of experience that the teachers have and use for us students. But I think that our grading system is flawed. Standards-Based education is a flawed system that makes it so students who do everything perfectly, and on time, could have the same exact GPA as someone who does all of their work late, and at poor quality.

Richmond may be a small school, but that is what keeps every student together. The teachers are wonderful and very helpful. My teachers make sure I'm on pace and understanding the new material. Every faculty member is concerned for all students. Every month Richmond High recognizes the small achievements that are made by a student. Richmond is just a caring and wonderful place to attend school and live.

We can't tell really how m...
