board meeting

my biggest little boy got invited to the school board meeting to honor all the students who got all A's all year. since he got invited last year and we didn't get to go, i thought i'd better take him this year. well, let me tell you...this school system has A LOT of smart kids!! at the beginning of the meeting, they said they sent out over 900 invitations among all of the schools (elementary thru high school)!! amazing, but my honest thought was, "oh my, this is gonna take a LONG time & we have a baseball game in an hour). for some illogical reason, they started announcing the high school kids first despite the fact that 80% of the crowd were elementary students. thankfully, his elementary was the first elementary announced & he proudly stood at the top of the bleachers with his fellow 1st-4th graders. we are so proud of him & how well he does in school and it's nice that the school board takes the time to acknowledge him for it. good job, buddy!
