**For those uncertain to what a DYK thread is......**

DYK stands for Did You Know or Do You Know

It is simply a chit chat thread where every thought is written in sentences and each sentences starts with the initials DYK---it is fun, entertaining and a great way to meet the board members.

That's a good goal! We always had a set agreement for Jordyn when she was competing in gymnastics on what grades she had to have in order to compete and what grades to travel to compete. Clear goals and standards are good.

I didn't realize how much I liked having the online grading til it wasn't there anymore. Jordyn is always good about telling me test grades, but she even said during a discussion we were having earlier this year, some of her teachers don't give their homework assignments back and don't tell them the grades they got on them, so they could have done the stuff completely wrong and gotten a really low grade and they would have no idea about it or how to correct which, which is really disconcerting to me as a parent.

Jordyn said last night to go ahead and call the registrar today about her report card english grade. Apparently the entire class period was messed up, but I'd like to have a corrected report card showing her actual grade, not just the email from the teacher. And Jordyn would like to know where her class ranking is as of right now.

Can she wear the brace under her jeans, it is one of those soft ones, so it doesn't cause "drama" at school?

I wish we had grades posted online. Our district has never had it. But it would be nice. I try to keep a running average as to what Nathan's grades will be, but at the end of the semester I am usually completely off. I email the teacher's but beyond, Nathan is doing well, or Nathan is trying really hard, I don't get much information until report cards come out.
His last report card was not too good. For the first time ever he brought home a bunch of C's.....so if they have not improved when his next report card comes out, he will be grounded until I see improvements.

Oh you'd be surprised when they put their mind to something how successful they can be. They just always seem to pick the wrong thing! LOL!
