I'm trying to write a sentence that says: "I have earned 'A's in all math classes." What do I do with that "A"s? I am pretty sure that there is no apostrophe between the A and the s. What I don't know is if any of that should be in quotations, and, if so, which part?

*sigh* for someone who claims to teach English (above), you don't know much or you're English skills are a little on the old side up there...
I have earned A's in all math classes. It IS 's ABSOLUTELY no questions asked....
But it sounds better to say I'm a straight "A" math student. WITH the quotations in there. Trust me on this, I'm in the middle of a college English course, and I'm majoring in English. Either way though...there's always an apostrophe after a letter and an "s" when you're saying that there are plural of that letter.

I am trying to write a sentence that says, “ I had earned all A’s in my math classes”. Did someone just give me a low rate in one second ago? OK I couldn't beat an English teacher.

I've taught English for many years and I teach:
/ I have earned A in all my math classes./
That connotes excellent grades in math as a usual event.
