[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I'd be concerned that he hasn't learned skills in certain classes like math and foreign language that will catch up with him in HS and result in Ds or Fs. I'd probably have him do math review over the summer with a tutor to share up skills. I'd probably also pay more attention to see if he is lacking study skills or not evidencing his knowledge in his work in a way that is keeping him from demonstrating what he knows. Executive function can be taught and it's possible he just needs some additional skills to bump up his grades to at least Bs. Lots of kids mask those challenges by pretending they don't care when the real issue is that they don't know how to do better and give up. A good study tutor may be able to help.[/quote] He is actually repeating the math level he was in (at an honors level but still the same level). They don’t have a foreign language yet. Most of his grades are Bs. [/quote]
