[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you are clearly astute with a smart kid and an ability to navigate systems. Kids grow up a lot between middle and high school. Also, the CA schools only look at sophomore and junior year grades. I would focus on figuring out what motivates your student to care about grades. I have a college freshman and a high school sophomore. Watching her high achieving sibling go through the college application nightmare really motivated my less high achieving student. She is working at an academic level this year I could not have imagined when she was in 8th grade. Good luck to you and your son.[/quote] Thank you so much for your kind words! I will be hoping for the best. He seemed to have matured a lot this summer but his grades are actually down this year… he says they don’t matter and he will ramp it up next year. So far I’ve been unable to dissuade him. Oh well. [/quote]
