Grandpa Explains the Grading Scale

Grandpa’s barn held many secrets We were cautioned to never open the boxes out there We figured there were skulls and bodies in them. When we were six we opened some Found report cards but did not understand the A’s and B’s. We were graded with S’s and G’s at the time. Took them to Grandpa who explained them this way. A for awful, B for Bad, C for Correct, D for danged Good and F for fine. Grandma had been an awful student!

This is so cute. I guess I was an awful, bad student, then, and I never wanted to be just fine!
