We are very proud of our kiddos!

Connor did very well this year in school.  He received a certificate for "Being the Fastest Reader While Comprehending".  He worked very hard this year to earn that award!  He also received a physical fitness award for improved health and performance.

Ty ended 5th grade with straight A's, perfect attendance, and an award for having the second highest Accelerated Reader points in the 5th grade!  Each semester the kids take tests and earn points on books they have read.  They are required to earn 16 points.  Tyler earned 492!  He did very well on the CRCT this year as well.  A score of 800-849 meets the standard and anything over 850 exceeds.  He scored the following:

Reading: 841
Language Arts: 839
Math: 851
Science: 921 
Social Studies: 843

As you could probably guess, science is his favorite subject!  He also received a class superlative certificate for wittiest classmate.  Seems very fitting for him!

Sarah graduated with straight A's and a 3.7 GPA.  She is very excited to have earned the HOPE scholarship.  She received a plaque for earning her academic letter (earned for having an A/B average) all four years of high school.  She was nicely decorated on graduation night, too.  The gold cord is for graduating with honors.  The blue and white cord is for serving all four years of high school in HOSA (Health Occupations Students of America)  The medallion is for having over 250 service hours in HOSA.
