I guess you can have that many students who never made a B. what are you going to do? Go back and average out the number grades to see who had the highest A?

In my attending's son's school in San Antonio, students got points towards Valedictorian status. grades were only part of the equation. Extra-curricular activities and clubs counted. My attending was pissed because his son with all A's was below another kid with the same grades. His son was quarterback on the football team and had been a 4 year varsity member while the other kid played in the band. Apparently the band counted for more points than football.

ETA: I told my attending to quit bitching since his son won the top scholarship given to incoming students to UT. Wah, wah, wah. I was salutatorian. How will I ever recover?
