You should listen to what your dad said and that if you don't do better in school, he'll make you go to summer school. You are probably really mad at him right now, right? Well, take what he said has motivation and start doing better. Once you know that you are doing better, show your dad all your grades and ask your teachers to write a note every week, saying that you are improving. If somehow you can't improve your grades, talk to your dad and tell him that you can't always look up to his expectations of you. If my mom or dad said this to me, I would actually prove to them that I can get better grades and they wouldn't let me go to summer school. Just prove to yourself that you can do better and I bet your dad will know that you can get good grades.
