I feel like the woman in the Sylvan commercial
after years of academic struggle, my son just called to tell me the lowest grade on his report card is a 90.

he's going to be 16 on Sat. I feel really proud, and really old.

5. That's awesome.
He's a smart kid. It's great to see it reflected in his grades. Tell him I'm proud of him too.

7. Me too!
My 14 yr old was never really motivated in school until recently. He just got his first semester grades, 6 As and 1 B and three of his classes are honors classes. I hope your son keeps it up!
