I've never gotten any A's in math before. On the last test, I got a 90. Number 25 was a constructed response and I got 0 on that question instead of 4, the most I can get. I brought it back to my teacher today. She said she misread it and added 4 to my grade. So I said, "That means I got an A?!?!" She suddenly realized that and said "Yes!"
She literally danced. I looked at her like she was crazy and she said, "You should see me when I'm grading tests and kids get good grades."
I 'lol'ed.
And the highest I've ever gotten is 2 B's, so an A was a triumph since in the beginning of the year I got bad grades (no F's, though!)
Discuss moments of triumph in school.

An 80+ is an A
It's not the same in all schools.

Not in mine. That's a C in my school.
Thanks, guys
@Berry122 I know how you feel, I got a C or D every week before this, too.

@getting an A:
This was a triumph!
I'm making a grade here
Huge 96
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.
Math class
We divide what we must, because we can
For the good of all our grades
Except for last year's.
But there's no sense leaving a fraction topheavy
You just keep reducing til' it's prime.....
(like it?

That's a B minus in my school.

And the math gets done and you get a neat grade for the report card that is YOUR GRADES.
I'm not even annoyed.
I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my mind and bored me.
And tore my backpack to pieces.
When I didn't have my work at all.
As I got a bad grade it made me mad because I was upset about MY GRADES.
Now these points of grading make a beautiful line
Grades are closing and vacation's on time
So I'm glad I got a grade, think of all the time we lost
for my MATH GRADES.
Go ahead and leave me.
I think I'd prefer to work inside.
Maybe you'll find some other teacher.
Maybe Professor Archimedes
That was a joke, haha, fat chance.
Ayways these grades are great
They're way bigger than 80.
Look at me still talking when there's math to do
When I look out there it makes me glad I'm not you
I've calculations to be run, there is averaging to be done on the grades of YOUR REPORT CARD.
And believe me your grades are good.
Your grades are doing good and they're high.
Your grades will be doing good and they'll be high.
Grades will be high.
Grades will be high.
