[quote=Anonymous]I think DD's grades are appropriate. She definitely does a ton of work in hard classes but also struggles with executive function (has inattentive ADHD) and because of late work or missed elements has ended up with anything from a D to an A in individual quarters. Junior year she'd do great in one class while flailing in another, switch focus and have the grades swap the next quarter. But, in the end averaged out to half As and half Bs, which seemed about right. The only inflation I saw was in her calculus grade, which really should have rounded to a final C+ but she had done a lot better in the last quarter of the year and I think her teacher could see that she was working really hard on it. So, she gave her some grace and rounded it up to a B (no B- grades at our school). With more maturity and lessons learned from junior year, senior year is going much better with all As in 1st semester. Makes me feel better about her readiness for college.[/quote]
