The same thing happened in seventh and eighth grade with my stepson. Both years he started strong, then "bit it" on the grades for awhile and suddenly (and probably just barely) pulled a decent gpa out of thin air. Gives ya hope right?
Yes, my Texting Queen got one too and my husband and I were stunned!! We sort or rained on her parade a little bit with some "Well, you know, this doesn't change....blah blah":)

Awesome!!
This is the worrisome middle-schooler? Wahoo! Everything that makes him feel good helps!
With you as his mom, I am hardly surprised! But, then again, I know what you mean. ;)
Congrats!
Yay for kids pulling it out of their, um, ear just in time. Good for The Kid. (My own Elder Son is doing that in med school even as I type.)
Nothing like having a child that keeps ya guessing....
Just think how much more exciting the award is because you weren't expecting one. :-)
congrats on a wonderful end of year surprise!!
Great job!
