GlitchGladiator+FollowBaton Rouge Schools Brace for Tougher GradingBaton Rouge high schools are struggling to boost LEAP test scores just as Louisiana is about to roll out a stricter grading system. Some schools with F grades, like Capitol High, actually slipped in math, English, and science—yikes. Even with a few bright spots (like Ascension Parish topping the state), most schools are stuck in the single digits for students mastering core subjects.
