Should students get paid when they good grades Yes Or No?

Answer 1

No. Students should not be paid for good grades. The grade is the reinforcement of good work and by paying a student you are teaching them that they will get something for what they should all ready be doing. School is their job and the grades are what they earn. When they go to work for someone that person will not reward them for doing their job except with a pay check. It teaches the child the wrong thinking for life.

Answer 2

Yes We Should Get Money For Having Good Grades

Proponents argue that paying a child for grades, good behavior, or other accomplishments is no different than adults being paid to perform their daily jobs. Thus, paying kids for performance prepares them for the "real world" where you have to work for your rewards.

No We Shouldn't get Money For Having Good Grades

Detractors argue that kids shouldn't be paid to what they should be doing anyway. Thus, while kids should be encouraged to do their best, they shouldn't be taught to expect a reward for simply doing what's expected of them.

Answer 3

That's an interesting question. I think no. Usually people get paid when they are providing a service. I think students go to school to receive a service, rather than to provide one, and therefore, they are the ones that should pay.

Now, in an ideal learning environment, everyone learns together, and the students help each other learn... and in cases of peer tutors or students who really pitch in and help the school by doing some real service... maybe so. But there are an awful lot of surly students who don't add much to the learning environment.

Now I agree with Zan,s last paragraph but, think that students have a right to be paid for there hard work in school because, students would have some money to help them in there young life rather then there parents struggling to keep a good finance and to help pay for there kids education.

I believe that education and hard work is important in a youngsters life and that's why students should get paid a little bit every month or in weeks because, students work very very VERY Hard in school and should have something to look forward to in life by showing that you can earn some thing by succeeding in life.
