At our HS teachers regularly post a bunch of grades in the day or two before the close of the marking period. So my oldest sees dramatic shifts in his grades when it's too late to do anything about it. It's infuriating, and IMO, defeats the purpose of these online reporting systems.

living a crazy life with 3 boys
I am thinking now
of grief, and of getting past it;
I feel my boots
trying to leave the ground,
I feel my heart
pumping hard. I want
to think again of dangerous and noble things.
I want to be light and frolicsome.
I want to be improbable beautiful and afraid of nothing,
as though I had wings.
