[quote=Anonymous]Grades in ES don't matter. My public ES doesn't give grades. Instead they tell if you kid knows the material or not on report cards. Exceeds, meets, developing. My rising 5th grader is immature and not detail oriented. So that shows in math especially as he will make small errors. But he's still in the advanced math class and still learning the concepts. I'm curious about middle school - grades there will be a wake up call and we'll then address issues. I also don't need my kid to go to an Ivy. I want him to learn, be happy and well-adjusted, and be able to choose a career path that will hopefully be fulfilling and pay sufficiently. I live in an area where there is so much competition in the schools. My kids are bright and I will support them. But I'm not jumping on the competitive bandwagon. I lived that already, and while it made undergrad so very easy, high school was pretty miserable. [/quote]
