Education and learning are important. School, on the other hand, not so much. I am learning this. Grades are not really as important as actually learning something. You can try and put so much effort into something and get an aweful grade, but you acutual learn something. And then there are the classes where you get As, just skimming right through with no effort whatsoever. And you do not learn a thing. I am sure that my French is getting better from Study Abroad and, while I am not fluent (which is what I was hoping for), that was the entire point of studying abroad. But I have a feeling my grades are not going to be what I wish them to be. But I am trying to keep in mind that it is the experiences (and French amelioration) which are more important.
