[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]. For example, when my kid was in 5th he totally blew a quiz (think F----). He was otherwise an excellent student. We only found out about it when we looked at the interim report and his grade cratered. BASIS also does not allow retakes or re-dos. If your kid leaves his homework at home or in his locker he's going to get a 0 for the assignment.[/quote]

Our son had similar experiences. But from my perspective, grades don't matter at all until 9th grade. Fifth grade is exactly the time to get zeros on not turned into homework, if they learn from that. In 7th, he's starting to get organized, and he's smart enough to have a decent understanding of the substance, as it sounds like the original poster's son would. [/quote]

Agree. My point to OP was that the school is not going to reach out and hand hold, or even say anything at all in all likelihood. OP needs to be prepared to be engaged and attentive to identify issues and work with her son to develop the necessary executive functions. [/quote]
