Should Students Get Paid For Good Grades

    First off, school requires a mental effort which by definition is considered to be work. Since we go to school for 8 hours every day and do that about 180 days per year, we should get paid if we keep our grades up because it’s hard to do. Keeping good grades requires lots of hard work and effort. It also requires time, which some of us

If kids do get paid they will like to learn more, they think going to school is a waste of time but when they do get paid they won´t think that anymore. kids don’t like school is because they think they don’t get anything out of it so if we do pay them they will work harder. In my opinion i

Getting paid for good grades has changed many people's lives and also changed their grades and knowledge. Wouldn't you want money for grades change your life too? Kids should get paid for grades to help the people who can't afford a simple,nice meal. Also, to keep their grades up and act like school is their job, because basically, it is. To begin with, many families need the money to survive and thrive.

The general argument made by the author Arianna Prothero in her work ‘Does Paying Kids to Do Well in School Actually Work’ is that paying students for grades only works for students who are already doing well within their classes. Throughout the article, the author was appearing to be neutral about the topic. Prothero uses the statement “the effects are small if even there at all” to emphasize the point about the incentive only working for students who are almost there. These pupils are the students who only need to put in a small amount of work and effort to achieve this reward.

Although she has many good points, I disagree. Students should not get paid to have good grades and to stay in school. I do believe that students should get good grades and stay in school, but should not receive payment for something most students are already forced to do. Let's face it, what student, on the brink of dropping out, is going to stay in school just to earn ten measly dollars. Some say only students who acquire good grades should receive payment. So with that taken into account, there are many questions that need to be asked, such as what grade point average is considered to be good, how much will students be getting paid for this certain grade point average, how will students get paid, cash, check, debit card, lunch money, and the list just continues on. A study conducted by Harvard Crimson showed that although when students were provided financial incentives to score well on tests, the students being paid actually did not do any better than the students

Would students be able to improve their grades if they were getting paid? Money is a great reward for most students and it could possibly have a long term effect on students. They are always wanting their grades to be improved and then they would have more of a reason to study for test and quizzes if they were getting paid do go to school. Students would be focused at school if their was money to be made by going to school. Teachers would also not be stopping as often because of students getting of track. I believe students would improve their grades if they were getting paid because, Money could have a long term effect, and more student could need a little more motivation

After school sports might be fun, but it is not helping the students at all. The games themselves might reduce stress levels; but it has been shown that schools tend to spend more on the fields and the bleachers then should actually be spent. A school was almost shut down because of the academic failures, but somehow still had equipment to play games. Therefore, schools should get rid of after school sports because they spend too much money on them, America is lacking academily compared to other countries, and they pay too much attention to the games.

Have you ever wondered how it would be if teachers got paid due to how students learn? Well, I think they should be paid due to how much students learn. I am sure everyone will have their own opinion, but my opinion is that they should get paid. This is the question I am wondering and I really want to know how it would be. This is my opinion on the topic and I have many reasons why teachers should get paid. I hope you agree with what I wrote and also I hope you agree with my reasons too. They will not be the same reason but I think these reasons make sense to my topic.

Do you want to get paid for A’s? If students got paid for A’s it would help them understand the value of money. It will prepare them for a real life job expectations.It offers oportunities to earn spending money and offers some motivation.

People say that it is a student’s job to go to school. If it is really their “job”, shouldn’t they be getting paid? Some people argue that students should get paid for good grades, but paying students shouldn’t be the solution for better grades. There are many reasons for this. Students should be able to work well in school without expecting such a reward like this.

I think that kids should get paid for having good grades for one reason. I am a student and I think that if we would get paid for making good grades a lot more kids would try. It is kind of like a job. You have to work hard so that you don’t get fired. If the kids were getting paid for good grades, then by the time they got out of high school they would have money for college, a car, or if there not going to college they will have money to rent a house.

In conclusion, I still agree that students should be paid for good grades because this will help with the student’s grades itself,this will get kids motivated to do their work to the best of their ability, and this helps with students that can’t afford school fees. Although there are cons to this claim there are also a bunch of pros that could really help with a student’s behavior, their quality with work, and their character outside of

Don’t you hate when teachers don’t surround you with attention when you finally do something right or would students get paid when they make good grades? Students feel special by getting attention and or a reward. When students fail every six week or something else they don’t get paid that much. Do teachers agree that students should get paid when making good grades? Should students get paid every eight hours for $20 if they make A B on a roll?

students should get paid for grades because it will help students want to learn more. people are trying to find a way to get students to get better grades and they think this is the best way. this is important because this is are education.

We use it for many things, and paying people to do what they’re supposed to be doing, shouldn’t be included. Research shows that the money might be spent on better things we know can help improve student achievement, like better teacher training. This proves the fact that money should be put into better ideas and plans, so the student can be taught well and make good money in the future, instead of being paid to do the bare minimum now. Despite that, it’s not just the fact that the money can go elsewhere, many people feel very uncomfortable with the fact. For example, according to the National Phi Delta Kappa poll, only one in four americans say children should be paid for good grades. Many say the practice is wrong, and like I said before, think the money can be used for better things. This data shows that many are against the idea of being paid for good grades because it could be put to better use. For example, helping poor communities, which therefore shows the next
