1st year of school and son not doing well

So happy to hear this! The RA position sounds like it will be positive, too. How is his schedule for the fall? Hopefully, not too overloaded. Do you have a plan in place for him to give you periodic updates on how things are going? (It’s hard to find the balance between asking too often and laissez-faire assuming all is fine …) Sounds like he’s got a good attitude about it all and is truly appreciative of the chance to turn it around. Do keep us posted.

Great news! All the best to him for a great sophomore year!
