Where does the apostrophe belong when the last name ends in "s" and is foreign?
I have a question. My teacher’s last name is Flores. On her classroom rules she put “Miss. Flores’s Classroom Rules.” Did she use the apostrophe correctly? My aunt is a teacher and she said that my teacher is wrong and it should be “Miss. Flores’ Classroom Rules.” Please help me clear up this apostrophe question.
