Bragging Rights

I just have to say that I'm always proud of our boys, but sometimes they give me even more to be proud of! All 3 boys got great report cards last week! John-William had all A's on his report card this grading period! Jackson had almost all A's -- only one B! Michael had all S's, which means that he has satisfactorily met his requirements, meaning that he has mastered those skills. So, out of 3 reports cards, only 1 B!!! Woo Hoo!!

Also, John-William tested (on last year's SATs) in the top 5% of all 4th and 5th graders in the entire Southeast (a 16-state region)!! He received an invitation from Duke University to participate in the 2009 4th/5th Grade Talent Search!! This program allows him to participate in online enrichment programs, compete for prizes, take advantage of advanced academic testing and he'll also receive exclusive publications and recognition from Duke University!! He is very excited about this honor and so are we!!!
