Today was the last day of school for students and middle school awards day. I am not a huge awards person, but it went pretty well. Cameron's elementary awards were yesterday morning. It was as long as ours today, which was a little much for him. He sat there a long time to receive his 100 point AR trophy. He was happy with that and vowed to read 300 points next year.
Meg's awards day was different. She was up and down so often I think that she might have gotten tired. She earned the physical education certificate, was recognized for being the spelling bee champion, was awarded a trophy for being only one of two students in the fifth to eighth grade to complete the honors reading program, was a scholar athlete and on the principal's honor roll for all A's this year. I was proud of her and her accomplishments. She has worked hard to overcome the issues she has had with her eye. She deserved to be rewarded.
Cal's last day went well also. He finished with all A's and one B (in chemistry.) There are no awards for high school sophomores, but Doug and I were proud of him for rising to the challenge that we put on him academically. He just made it in English and Health, but that's alright with me. It was a tough year with the promise that junior year will only be harder. Until then he can enjoy his summer.
