I have twins 2 years younger than your daughter. Both usually get high honors across the board, but my son ended the year with a C in Honors Lit. He said the teacher was difficult. I am surely not going to make him take the class over!
Freshman and Sophomore years in high school are the 'slacking off' times. But come her Junior year, PSAT's, college recruitments and college prep courses will generally get a fire going under kids' seats.
If she really does struggle, perhaps she should be taking Math classes that she can handle. I sucked at Math, failed almost every one or got by with a D. What did I do straight out of high school for the next 11 years? Accounting clerical.....:\
