I thinks it's okay as long as it's not for Bars/restaurants and the like..

Good idea.

I think it is lazy. Why do we need to pimp report cards?

I think it sucks. Report cards should be used to report the student's progress, or lack thereof. Nothing else.

I spent close to 700 dollars registering 2 kids for school. If this helps relieve some of these fees, then I am for it. (That 700 is not including the AP books you have to buy)

Talk to someone who works at the schools and you'll find your answer.

I think it should be customized to the student's grades. A students, maybe advertising Hillsdale College, D students, maybe advertising future opportunities in the fast food biz....


Hey, the govt thinks we should put dying people and pics of cancerous lungs on cigarette packages to scare the consumer....wouldn't the same logic apply to report cards?
