What can I do to raise my child's grade?

Here are just a few things you can do to help raise your child's average.
     - make sure your child is completing AND turning in all work on time.
     - make sure your child keeps up with their notes. These are invaluable
resources when preparing for quizzes, and tests.          
     - have your child correct any failing grades and retake tests whenever
possible. 
     - make sure your child puts a name on any assignment turned in for a
grade. If there is no name,  the paper will be thrown in the trash.
