Where did I spent my birthday morning? Watching my daughter receive an academic award for achieving a 4.0 or higher average this year, along with 150 other Juniors, and 200 other sophomores. (We watched Nathan get the same award as a Freshman yesterday morning, along with 200 other Freshman)... I am so proud of them. Granted, they are each taking an AP (advanced placement) course which counts as a 5.0 if you get an A, which is what brought their GPA up, but still, that's something to be proud of.
At the end of the awards ceremony, the principal asked the parents give the kids another "round of applause". The parents gave a standing ovation to the students, which was awesome. Then the principal asked the kids to "thank their parents, teachers, and supporters", in which the freshman students gave the PARENTS a standing ovation, the juniors, seniors did THE WAVE! It was a pretty cool moment to realize the kids actually do appreciate their parents and teachers.
