people achieve greatness.

I bet you are one of those people who tell their children 'well D's are passing'.

I have worked with AA students for thirty years now. I do not believe in excusing their failures nor do I celebrate when they meet minimum expectations.

I expect the best from all of my students and would never insult them by acepting anything less.
