Dylan's Awards Day

Dylan with his teacher
Dylan's award day was on Thursday, May 18th. We are so proud of him. The first graders do not get grades. The school give the Character Quality award and the Patriot Pride award to each first grader. The teacher would choose which quality to honor the child for with the Character Quality award. Dylan's teacher honored him for his kindness. Besides the Patriot Pride award and the Character Quality award, he got the Citizenship award, the Reading award, and the Study Skills award. We are proud of our sweet boy. I had a moment of Mommy guilt during the awards. They did not call Dylan's name for the reading award. My boy who reads every chance he gets did not get the reading award?! I thought I had really messed up and not written down everything. Turns out that they had just forgotten to call out his name. No Mommy guilt this time!

Dylan's teacher has been wonderful. She was also Chase's teacher last year. She is the kind of teacher that truly loves the children and recognizes their individual gifts and talents. She has a true love for teaching and learning. She is always kind and encouraging. I am so thankful that she has been Chase's and Dylan's teacher.
