[quote=Anonymous]NP Here. OP, sorry this thread degenerated into sniping so quickly. You are not being ridiculous. My kid generally performs above grade level, but also has some weak areas and sometimes doesn't complete all her assignments. If I see she is underperforming on her report card, I check in with the teacher. It's nothing to do with Harvard. It's about keeping track of those weak areas and working on them as needed. I'd contact the teacher in the fall and talk about the reasons for the lower grade. Use the answers to guide what you want to work on in third grade. Let the new teacher know what weaknesses you are concerned about. When communicating with school staff, don't just take "he is fine" for an answer. Ask specific questions about problem areas. Monitor homework. If he isn't able to complete it in a reasonable time, or refuses to do part of it, that's a warning sign. [/quote]
