[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can those of us with 10th graders having a rocky start post too? Kiddo who was diagnosed with a specific learning disability this summer is struggling in a couple classes. Turning work in late and incomplete, feeling overwhelmed and defeated already just a few weeks in. Really hoping they can crawl out of the hole and get back on track. Had to have a tough conversation and a bit of an intervention last night.[/quote] Get a tutor stat. Those grades matter [/quote] We have a tutor and other supports lined up. It’s just been tough. We’re well aware grades matter, thanks for that really helpful comment.[/quote] They honestly don't matter as much as you're led to believe. It's fine for a 10th grader to still be finding their footing, especially with a new LD diagnosis. If they show progress and improvement as things get figured out, plenty of colleges will not be worried at all about the 10th grade grades.[/quote]
