My son's elemetary school here in the People's Republic of Maryland gives grades of "A" through "E." Too much of a stigma associated with the "F' grade, don't ya know.

When I was in school in MI, the grades on the report card were A-D and then F. I thought that an E would equal an F. But, I cannot imagine the issue ever coming up. D always meant big trouble.
