Worse grade at your elementary?

It varies. Every few years there is a poorly behaved cohort of boys and the trouble just follows them. So one year it will be the third graders and then the next year it’s the fourth graders. The whole school exhales when they leave for middle school. I feel so bad for the remaining students and families in their grade.

It sounds like 3rd/4th boys and current middle school girls is the consensus. Our school is the same and the 4th grade boys and 6th and 7th grade girls have had issues since they were each in 1st grade. Interestingly, a lot of 4th grade kids at our school have older siblings in 6th and 7th.

Last year there was a graduating group of 8th grade boys that had been a challenge since pre-K. I’m pretty sure the HOS would have paid for HS tuition out of their own pocket if it would have sped their way out the door.
