Perhaps you can pose some questions to the brits on here to help bring that grade up?

Very Good Jaser !!

I for one am proud of you !

yowsaa (who scraped through highschool with a C+ and never missed a day, lol)

[Mouse]

I'm just happy I'm not failing anything. I thought I would be for sure, and I haven't failed anything since 6th grade. Bleh.

A "D" in art young man? No ice cream for you...now go to your room...you are grounded.

Wow, this is completely opposite from what I'd expect (low in art & lit, high in the math & science).  I think there are a lot of bright spots on this report and more so what you need to do better in, should not be a struggle going forward.  You've been through a lot, kid.  Keep at it and just know that it pays off.  Not a bad rank, either. 

PS.  I LOVED World History.

[Mouse]

I'm notorious in my art class for getting cranky and throwing out drawings and paintings and stuff halfway done because I don't like finishing them how I'm told to.

And taking low grades or zeros for it.

Less paper cutting and more studying young man!

Actually I haven't a clue what those scores mean? Are they %s?
Pls can you translate what equates an A B C etc...?

That's definitely not too bad, nothing to be ashamed of!  With the exception of British Lit and Art, those are all reasonble grades

Hey Jaser,

Through it all, I would say that you turned out with a very good average. It gives you a snapshot of some areas to focus on. Keep up the good work.


Make the BEST of each Day!

Hi
If you are interested, Mouse, I can give you the TEACHERS point of view.  First: you are in the class to learn. Second: part of learning is being able to follow instructions Third: when you have an assignment, you can discuss it with the teacher and the TWO of you can work something out.
The only F I ever gave in Art was to a really nice gay guy who worked as a waiter/bartender at a place I frequented. I hated to give him an F but he did not drop the class ( as he should have) and never came to class and never turned in any work.  That F will follow him to his grave, I hate to say.  Talk to your teacher and work something out , always turn in something.  Never skip classes.
Hope this gives you some help.

Hi Jaser,

Sorry about art class.  As an artist, I was always dumping all of my energy into that... I do think creativity should have some freedom at times.  The famous experimental animator, Jules Engel, who passed away in 2003, told a story to my class at California Institute of the Arts (where he taught) once of how his teacher in grade school noticed he liked to draw shapes and color.  She let him stay inside during recess and he followed his creative urge... she inspired him to work and he created his own visual, animated language.

Here some pics... http://www.netropolitan.org/engel/engel_work.html 

I think Bear60 has some great advice, however I wish sometimes the instruction would be to follow yourself!  What is art is it is not (at times) fun?!

Bests,
Drew

 You know, a good instructor will recognize the creative students and encourage individual development!!!! But really.....this is just between Mouse and his Instructor.
