Today, my mom said if I dont get straight A's in my classes this year, she'll get the school to hold me back until I do. I believe her. FML

I don't think the school would allow that. If it's a real problem then talk to the principal about it or the headmaster

Just try your hardest OP, there is no way the school would let that happen so just do well (A's and B's) and I'm sure you'll be just fine!

My friend and I were held back in elementary school because we weren't ready. I'm not sure they can just hold you back in middle/high school if you have all passing grades. I knew people who failed in middle school and obviously they had to be held back. I doubt the school would allow that. That's a really stupid request and it wouldn't help you in the long run.

Well she's stupid you can get A's and B's OP block her out

Yeah, my mom threatened to hold me back in 8th grade because I had a C in math. The school wouldn't allow it. You'll be okay, just don't fail anything.

She can't do that, the school has to make the decision there are criteria for it so she can't force them to hold you back

Even if you dont get straight A's. If you get passing grades they cant hold you back.

that's stupid. the school won't hold you back for that.
