[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m so over people saying highest rigor and all the things. It is getting so absurd. [/quote] I agree. My DS arrived home from school feeling hopeless and crying over 3 mid-term Bs in high rigor classes. They won’t even be on his transcript! He feels like he won’t get into any college unless he is perfect. At a private school where retakes are not allowed and one test will sink your grade from an A to a B. How did we do this to our kids? [/quote] So, my kid in public also has the same situation- retakes not allowed. One test will sink your grade from an A to a B. Etc. Her GPA has taken a hit with a couple B’s. But she has a ton of resilience and knows she will enjoy college wherever she lands. I suspect something in your home or his environment may be adding unnecessary stress. No kid should be crying over grades. I’m sorry.[/quote]
