[quote=Anonymous]My daughter had a rough transition at first. From K-8, her teachers always said she was really sweet, "a joy to have in class" but also extremely quiet and needed to learn to ask for help. Right out the gate, she got a lot of 70s with notes saying she didn't seem to understand the assignment, she didn't fully answer questions, or she left things blank. I told her to go to the office hours for the teachers (mostly during lunch or after school). This was about 2 weeks ago. Since then, she seems to be doing a lot better. The 70s are up to high 80s/low 90s. She seems to be enjoying herself so far. I had to force her to join two clubs in 7th and 8th grade (she didn't want to join any in 8th grade). They had a club fair last week, and she joined four on her own. She also signed up for several community service activities as well. She's in the engineering academy and seems to enjoy the intro class for that. As far as negatives: she says it's incredibly loud in the halls and sometimes in the classrooms "with the teachers who are too nice." [/quote]
