Awards Day X 2

Anna's school split up their awards into 2 separate sessions. The first consisted of Accelerated Reader, Citizenship, Presidential Physical Fitness and Cub Sports participation. Anna received the Presidential Physical Fitness award which was based on several different athletic "tests" including a run, sit ups, etc. I very much remember doing this at Campus School and always wanted the certificate. Anna was proud as there were only a few in her class that scored high enough to earn recognition. What was super cool was that 5 kids in her school performed well enough to be recognized nationally!! Anna played soccer for school in the fall as well as cheerleading and earned recognition for that as well. Her classmate Parth won the AR award for the second semester. He was by far the winner with his massive amount of points. Anna was proud to be in the top 5 in her class and the only girl in the group. They were recognized with a special lunch with a friend and a movie! The kids in her class voted Kennedy and Cole for the citizenship awards. Sweet kids!!

The second round of recognition included academic awards and perfect attendance. For second graders, there was a National Geography Award and Perfect Attendance and Anna made a clean sweep! We had no idea she had even taken the national geography test and that she scored in the top 10% nationally. So proud of her!! She was excited and surprised to be recognized for that along with several other classmates. She did earn perfect attendance for the year. We seem to have a healthy household which is great!!

Three cheers to Anna for her success...she is already spying the medals and trophies that you can earn starting in 3rd grade for the academic honor rolls. Love my sweet girl!!!
