Apologies for such sporadic postings this past week. I was out of town Wednesday evening, we had football practice and loads of homework Thursday night and then Friday was a football game. Thankfully, we now have some time today to reflect on the first nine weeks through my son's first middle school report card.
All As except for that 89 in English. AARGH!?!?!? And, to top off the extremely aggravating 89, the English teacher's comment of I is a code for "exhibits positive attitude." Seriously, he gets kudos for a positive attitude and you can't bump his stinking grade up to an A.
Christopher seems OK with the B. He really wanted straight As, but knows he did his best. Again, the B resulted in two low, timed, in-class assignments. His homework, quizzes and tests -- an A average.
I plan on e-mailing his teacher. I will thank her for the nice comment and then ask how we can work together to get Christopher an A the next nine weeks.
Gervais and I are so proud of him. He has adapted well to changing classes and having different teachers. I think that keeps him focused and on top of his behavior. He gets to start fresh every 40 minutes.
He received all Satisfactory conduct codes except for one class, Art. In that class, he received an E. Yep, excellent.
That about sums up this first nine weeks in middle school -- excellent.
