[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ask the teacher she has now for their recommendation. In the regular class, there may be a lot of kids that are not strong in math or who have behavioral issues that may impact her learning. Please don’t focus so much on As at this age. You want her to learn the material. [b]She does not need to worry about her GPA at this level. [/b]Kids do not need parental pressure on grades. A B is not an F. Please back off the grade pressure thing. Not every kid is going to get into Harvard. [/quote] I disagree. Algebra and the foreign language will be on her transcript so she will need to make sure does well in those classes. [/quote] Agree, the only grades that we focus on with DS are math and foreign langauge. Both are on his HS transcript and the math is foundational for higher math. English and Social Studies we pay attention to but give him more time to course correct on his own then Geometry and his langauge.[/quote]
