history: I found out that my son got a B in one of his classes at the end of last year. I thought I had a truly exemplary, world-changing student on my hands. Now I know he's just...above average.
current: Speaking of kids in school, I just found out my son got a B in his world history class at the end of the previous school year. I can't believe it.
next: That's great!!  History is so important I think and so few kids really grasp it well.  Congrats to him for a job well done!
