It gets worse - read paragraph six: a student in the 75th percentile (50/200) had a 4.0 average! Not just "we're all equal" - "we're all equal and straight A students, besides!"

They probably play musical chairs with 15 chairs for 10 kids so everyone is a winner.

Howard County, Maryland hasn't had valedictorians since I was in High School back in the early 1990's
