The Bronx Leads the Way

Eximius College Preparatory Academy in Bronx sends student his grades, after he transferred out: "Bronx teen Quinn Montgomery was shocked when he got his report card this month.

That's because it came from a public school he no longer attends - the same school that failed to issue him grades while he was there.

Eximius College Preparatory Academy in Morrisania has even posted grades for Quinn in online progress reports even though he hasn't been there since transferring out last summer.

'The school has no idea what it's doing,' said Quinn, 15, now an eighth-grader at Intermediate School 117 in Mount Hope.

Transcripts provided by the family to the Daily News show Quinn enrolled in four Eximius classes he never took, taught by teachers he never had."

Sounds like a scene from the long-lost Shepherd Mead book HOW TO BECOME A VALDICTORIAN WITHOUT REALLY TRYING.
