launching of ideas for the coming fall,

When he failed to make his grade las year did you take the trouble to ask his teacher why he failed? Or did you take for granted that the teacher was not strict enough and Johnnie played in school instead of getting his lessons? Or maybe you said, "JChnnie is so bright at home l know he must be smart in school, and tha. teacher doesn't give him credit for what he knows Maybe he will get different teacher next year And i then you dismissed the subject from your concern for another year.
 But you did not know that when the teacher asked a question and tine ma iority of the hands in dhe class went up for reply.
