Something I didn't mention on Tuesday was that Darby's grounding was extended through the weekend, rather than being concluded on Friday (today). While at her sister's fencing lesson, she was supposed to study spelling after doing her homework, but her mother caught her playing jump rope instead, which was a direct violation of the terms of her grounding, and resulted in the extension.
However, in light of her progress in the last 30 or so hours, her mother and I have reconsidered. Her mother reports that Darby cleaned her room up very well last night, and has behaved, and then there was the test scores and positive note from the teacher today (see yesterday's updated entry).
So, barring futher transgression, the extension of her original week-long grounding has been repealed, and she is now a normal kid again. However, she has been so advised that we must keep up the pace on studying so that we can turn those three Cs around in time for report cards.
