<p>Im rank 2 in my class of 500ish, but recently I heard that some others who are lower in rank or have received a D in one of their classes may be valedictorian instead of me. Now, the girl who got a D has a mom who works in the school. The other girl who is lower in rank has a rich dad who has donated a lot of money to the school......Should I confront the school about this and see what I can do to fix the situation, or should I just let it go and not even bother? I know I would like to have the status of valedictorian or salutatorian, but it wouldn't bother me much if I didn't receive the title, or reward, or whatever it is...just wanted some feedback, see what others think of the situation....</p>
<p>There is more than one valedictorian?</p>
<p>Go to college and succeed, this high school drama will seem laughable in ... 2 years max. Colleges will recognize your rank and unless you are going Ivy it shoudn't make a huge difference. Good luck. Also, why would you be valedictorian anyway? Wouldn't that go to the student(s) ahead of you? I also find it interesting that you know this other student got a D in a class...lol</p>
<p>yeah, there can be more than 1 val, depends on teh school though, yeah, i figured that i'd laugh about it later, and some schools take the top 1 percent of the school and award them with val status, and the girl who got a D in her class, well, it was hard not to hear about it seeing as how people kept mentioning how it was unfair, it's not like i could just ignore it, although i guess i will ignore all of that crap now....</p>
<p>Yeah I wouldn't stress over it too much, though it would be nice to be "vlad"</p>
<p>high school politics rocks. especially when you create something and other people try to snaggle their butts in on your harvest.</p>
<p>if i were in your position, i'd investigate. it makes me mad that stuff like this actually happens.</p>
<p>hmmm, maybe i'll question them a bit, cuz i can't just sit there and do nothing, but i doubt i'll blow it up into a big thing or anything like that, no point, it's not worth the hassle....thanx guys.</p>
