Until grades (not bagrut scores, but actual class grades) are a meaningful 
criterion in determining army placement and university admissions, students 
will have no problem justifying their own laziness.

Subject: [etni] school grades


In response to Kathi's comments, I have also had kids come out with 
higher final school grades than their "matkonet" exam grade due to outstanding 
project work. This has happened many times in the past and  in my 11th grade 
class this year.  Sadly, by the time the kids are seniors, too many of them 
make a turn-around and do the minimum. Sigh...
