Character Counts

Brielle was chosen by her teachers to recieve the Character Counts Award for January- as a Leader of being Compassionate in her class. Each month the teachers select 1 child in their class that exhibits the given trait for that month. Mrs Russell and Mrs Maxfield had this to say about Brielle:
"Brielle is kind to everyone. She is very proactive in the way she responds to others. She thinks about the situation and then responds in an appropriate manner. Brielle is thoughtful to others and wants to help them. She is willing to listen to others ideas. Brielle makes our classroom a safe and happy place to be."


I couldnt agree more with Brielle's teachers. Brielle is compassionate and cares about others. She is a good friend to everyone and genuinly cares about others. I am so proud of her!

Reflections

 Katie moved onto the next level for reflections and they had an awards ceremony for about 6 schools (150 students). She received a participation award.  And even though she didn't move onto the ne xt highest level,  we are so proud of her and hope that she has a desire to continue to enter next year.  There were some pretty amazing entries, I love seeing how children can be creative!
