Zack Hill by John Deering and John Newcombe for February 11, 2023

I’d say it’s good; something worth treasuring… for a while until you throw the paper in the trash.

He’s proud of it.

Hey, I would have done that. High achievers have no understanding how tough it can be for learning challenged individuals to reach that goal. I had to work hard and spend hours on homework just to get a B. So what’s really sad is the insensitivity of today’s strip.

Did Zack give them permission to come into his room when he’s not present?

Maybe it’s just me, but I think it’s a good sign.

That was an “A” for participation!

I don’t see anything wrong with framing your first “A” if you’ve been a straight-A student throughout your whole academic life. Further, if framing his first “A” helps motivate the kid to get even more, then I think that should be encouraged and not frowned upon.

Long time ago we got a dime per ‘A.’ While I was saving up for a nickel candy bar, my cousins made down payments on homes.

Why not frame it? It’s an achievement.

Never understood the framing your first dollar thing.

Yet you look so proud :))

“First” or “only” A?
