Aren't letter grades just number grades represented by a letter?

Yes, yes, yes. But this is entirely different. This is numbers represented by numbers.

Want to fix the school system?

1. Kill all the lawyers
2. Throw students out who are unwilling to learn
3. Refuse to pass students until they actually know the subject matter
4. Don't let people play sports who can't write a paper and do basic math
5. Get rid of rain forest math, diversity, and earth day celebrations
6. Treat boys like boys, and make them do pushups or laps when they get out of line, don't drug them into a stupor

Several other ideas, but if you did #1, you'd solve 75% of the problems.
