Yeeeehaaaa me like!

Sounds like BC is having a down year.

It is always tough when a kid works hard at something and then isn't successful. I hate that your son has it harder than some of the other kids might. The problem is the real world is not going to make exceptions for him. He is going to have to overcome this problem. Is it fair, no! Guess what, life is not fair. Not trying to be mean, but don't let this be your excuse to let him slide and not pass. It is difficult, but you must help him overcome and find a way to be successful. Imagine the look on his face when he does pass and is able to play, show, or graduate. The hard work that he had to put in may be the work ethic that makes him successful in whatever he chooses to do some day. In the end, no pass no play is law. If you don't like it, talk to your representatives and get it repealed.
On another note, I hope the school is also helping with the dyslexia. If not, you need to have a serious talk with some administrators. There are programs that can help, and sometimes they have to try different things to find the one that works. Good luck to your son, and hope he never misses a game or show. Be proud of him for the hard work that he puts in. That is something many kids today lack.

. Thank you for your kind words of wisdom. I have 2 kids my girl is 25 and was a A-B student and her and my son both get told all the time that "life ain't fair". So for my son hasn't missed a game or showing at the fair and last year he made the sale with his animal. He has good teachers that help him by letting him redo work and turn work in late. As for as contacting representatives we have talked to everybody all the way up to the governors office. It's just that I don't need the state to motivate my child to do his work That's the parents job not the states. We have to much government in our lives now.

My son is autistic and if a child has a true disability there are modifications outlined in their ARD to prevent them from struggling. Every child CAN succeed. Expect results, advocate, but don't blame the system.

. Good luck to your son in everything he does in life. Now the difference we have is dyslexia is 504 so he only gets accommodations not modifications. Modifications are for special ed which means they do 1/2 the work that 504 students do. I need to explain that I am not looking for any kind of sympathy or anything just trying to explain.

Well Mr Slam 14 my son does work hard and we do work with the school in many ways. Until you have to deal with this you have no right to judge.

Yes your right on that usually teachers will give benefit of the doubt to effort. But I don't think you can compare this to slavery. It's not that bad.

. Just comparing the time,everyone says no pass no play has been around a long time so it must be a good thing. Well slavery had been around hundreds of years so I guess it was a good thing to. Just saying just because something's been around a long time doesn't mean it's a good thing.

Yes your right $$$ is always motivation but some kids can study there a** off and still have trouble passing. Your also right about no pas no play being around a long time. Does that make it right? Slavery was around a long time to did that make it right? I have a son who has dyslexia he goes after school for help he also stays up to 1 and 2 o'clock in the morning doing homework. Then he gets told he can't play football a game he loves or show at the fair something else he loves to do. Then people say no pass no play is a good thing that's because they don't have to see the disappoint on there child's face. Sounds more like discrimination against those that have a hard time with school and grades.

So the ones that are only in school to play sports, shouldn't have to worry about classes. Heck if that's the case why even make them attend just let them show up at practice after roaming the streets all day!

You don't understand what I'm saying. The real smart kids have no trouble with grades so no pass no play don't effect them. The ones that have learning disabilities are already frustrated so sometimes sports or FFA or something they enjoy is all that keeps them in school. No pass no play also cost people money on things like fairs. All the money that goes into a animal goes down the drain if the kid is failing. Now who does that effect the student or the parent? There's more to this than letting a kid roam the street then go to play ball.

No pass no play sucks anyway. Some kids only try in school to play ball and when you take that away they just say to heck with it.

Chester lost tonight 64-53. Nice game by both teams.

32-28 Chester leads at the half

Then why does there website have a different team for tonight
