Summary:

"I feel like awards like this should be offered to all students though, not just the ‘gifted’ ones whose potential shines at an early stage. Don’t all little kids have potential? So what if some shine more than others- we are all important and should be treated equally by all the teachers. Now I’m not saying that kids with higher intellect shouldn’t be boosted up, I’m just saying no favoritism should be shown to a child with straight A’s than a child with B’s and C’s. Judging students primarily based on their grades can cause them to lose interest in learning, then do worse in school."
