[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We switched from public to private this year.  My previously straight A student is now a solid D.  Completely unprepared for a single class, in spite of doing homework for hours every night.  [/quote]

Nice.  What schools?[/quote]

I'm curious about this too. I also wonder the age of your child and the impact of covid on mental health. I think it (covid) is silently sucking the teens emotional vitality.  [/quote]

PP are you the former Deal parent who posted a few days ago?[/quote]

No, I have kids out of state at an equivalent to Big 3, where they’ve been lifers.  There was a suicide in the high school this year, which was devastating to the community, which is very small.  I can’t help but wonder if it is stress related to Covid and all that the pandemic brought with it.  I’m trying so hard to make everything “normal” for my kids, but their socialization really suffers.  I think high school is especially tough given how much they develop socially during this time.  If kids are also changing schools and friends, then a drop in grades may signify nothing more than the kid is stressed by the changes.[/quote]
