[quote=Anonymous]Stick it out for the rest of the year and then move on if you think it's best, but you are not alone with the struggle. My DS came to BASIS in 6th and really struggled the first half of the year. We signed him up for academic support with Ms. P, met with a few of the teachers, and really focused on looking at effort and overall improvement vs grades. He elected to stay for 7th grade (I was ready to go) and has a much better handle on managing the work. Also, try really hard to let go of the focus on high grades. Of course you don't want your DC getting Fs, but hard earned Bs and Cs helped my DS recognize the value in studying and putting in the effort to get what he wanted. Good luck to you and your family.
