Academic letter

This kid has always had to work hard at school. He received a letter in the mail from his principal today telling him that he made the honor roll and earned an academic letter!

Distance Learner of the Week

Shecklet #1 was chosen as his school’s Distance Learner of the Week. Here’s what his corhort/Social Studies teacher said about him:

“There are a lot of middle school students who have figured out how to make distance learning successful but [Shecklet #1] stands out above the rest. [Shecklet #1] logs into class 10 minutes early every school day. He has an organized work space, he greets people as they join, he uses his camera, and he has mastered the most important skill for distance learning: communication. I always know how he is doing and what he needs because he is great at sharing that either through email or face-to-face interaction through our screens. He is making the most out of distance learning and we are proud of him! Great job, [Shecklet #1]!

Jake asked him what he would like to do to celebrate his award and he said he wanted a DQ ice cream cake. He chose a cookie dough one – like he had for his birthday.

Forgiveness

This kid was chosen as Student of the Month for February! The character trait was forgiveness ❤

Student of the Month!

Shecklet #1 was given the student of the month award for December (awarded in January) for displaying the character trait, respect.  Here’s what his teacher had to say about why she chose him:

“When I think of a student that is always respectful, I think of this student.  Whether the activity is easy or hard, he respectfully raises his hand for help or asks someone quietly.  He is respectful of his friends, allowing all kids to play what he is playing.  He uses his manners with the staff at school and his classmates.  This kid is kin and caring here at school and that is why (Shecklet #1) has been named student of the month for the character trait of respect.  We are lucky to have you in our second grade class.  Thanks for being a great role model.”

Jake and I were able to attend the assembly to see him receive his award.  He was all smiles!wpid-imag1675_burst002_cover.jpg
