Thanks Karen, will do. My science teacher still refuses to give extra credit but I can try and see if there is anything in the other subjects. I think I will be absent on the day of the certificates. I just do not feel like accepting somrthing that is not mine. But I will try to feel better. I cannot help it. Now my best friend got a greater score than me in every subject. I don't know why but I just think everyone should mind their own business and not worry about grades, well except if you are failing then that matters. And plus, I got a better art grade than her--a 96!! I forgot about that!! And she is not going to be on honors english till next quarter but at least I got on it at the beginning of the year!! I feel better now!!
