I’ll never forget a lady teacher my son had in the third grade, she was about ready to retire. My son was a slow learner and we talked to her about it. She said not to worry, he would do fine and improve as the years passed. To this day I don’t know how she knew it but he became a straight A student all through high school and had a 3.7 something GPA in college.
I’m so glad to hear that your son is doing well. I taught school for many years. Third and fourth graders were some of my favorite students. The desire to do well, and supportive parents are key ingredients to student success. God bless you both.
