The Warrens: Awards Day & End of School

You know, I'm aware that all parents think that their children are the cutest and the funniest and the smartest, etc. And to each, they are...

However, this is MY blog so I can brag on my kids as much as I want to... so here we go (again!):

We were invited to Awards Day at the school. Below, you will see Rebecca with the awards she was presented. Since you can't read each of the certificates, I'll outline it for you:

* All A Honor Roll (she maintained an A in each class of hers all year long)
* Perfect Attendance (the first year for this, but very cool)
* Highest Grade Average in her class for Spelling
* Highest Grade Average in her class for Math
* Highest Grade Average in her class for Social Studies
* A certificate for her 1st place in the County Art Fair
* A certificate for her Best of Show Honorable Mention at the County Art Fair
* A ribbon for Special Recognition for Participation in the Duke TIP (Talen Identification Program - based on her state wide scores)

So as you can see, we are very proud of her!

We were also invited to Christian's Award Day (they hold each grade levels separately). Here is what Christian received:

* A/B Honor Roll throughout the year (however his final report card averaged all A's for his subjects which was a HUGE accomplishment)
* Perfect Attendance (a first for him, too)
* Citizenship Award - this is the Highest honor a student can receive -one boy and one girl is selected from each class by the teacher - this is a character award
* Certificate for participating in the County Spelling Bee
* Certificate for WINNING the County Spelling Bee
* Certificate for his AR Reading points
* Certificate for his Writing Assessment (something all 5th graders do and is graded on a 1-6 scale. Christian got a 5 on his which indicates a STRONG paper)
* A ribbon for Special Recognition for Participation in the Duke TIP (Talen Identification Program - based on his state wide scores)

Again, you can see we're VERY PROUD of our smart kiddos!

Silly, I know, but even I got an award. Rebecca's teacher, Mrs. Henderson, had a pre-Awards Ceremony ceremony for every kid in her class and gave them each some type of an award. She gave out 2 VIP (Very Important Parent) award and I got one. :-)
