I got a 3rd grade grandson who just brought home his quarterly progress report. Nothing below 95%. His most improved over last year is citizenship, from way low to 100%. We tried to stress that as an important thing, (I yank off my hat inside the school buildings because that's one of the school's rules . . no hats in doors, etc., etc.) with the emphasis that EVERYBODY has to follow the rules and it appears to be maybe paying off.
He has read 122K words since school began August 8th.
