1st quarter grade sends

I’ve had this same question and consideration. Really want to send his first semester grades showing he’s still pushing hard with his academics (all As in his 4 APs, honors Spanish IV and two other classes). As far as he can tell only one school is showing those as part of the ‘missing application’ (rechecking them all today). He really wants his selective colleges to know he is not in the senior coast mode, like most at our school who are taking bare minimum and checking out at Noon every day for ‘work study’ (which the academic kids joke means ‘work on my tan’). Also hoping it would help with the ‘showing interest’ because many of his top choice schools we haven’t been able to visit in person as they are just to far.
