Fantastic grades!!!! Did I hear you correctly though… a D in english? Do you have plans to work on this… any support you can get to up that grade.. or accomplish more with this class?? What do you think about your teacher?? Our daughter was at the most prestigious girls school in Boston.. and we learned when she was a juniorI think, that “they don’t give out A’s in English”. She also had some learning difficulty in that subject (a reading deficit which we never had tested) and had always struggled with English as a class. So, we frankly were delighted when she got a C for the class. Today, as an art student, she struggles with any English required course, but gets high grades for her efforts!!! Her writing talent is to her advantage!!!! Good Luck!!!
