Our son attended a very similar school, but some students at his school were earning those grade-deflated A’s under that harsh grading rubric, and it was those students he was competing against/being compared to by the colleges to which he applied, not students under a different rubric who went to a school he did not attend. It is what it is. The important thing is that he was well-educated and well-prepared for the college he chose. I’m sure your son will be equally well-prepared for whichever college he eventually chooses, and that’s what counts.
