Lancer Leader

May 29, 2018

In the last two weeks of school Maxwell came home one day saying he had won a leadership award. I was obviously very proud but assumed it was something in just his class. The I got two texts from other moms congratulating Maxwell on his big recognition! huh?! So, I emailed this teacher and found out that he had won the Lancer Leader award! Any teacher or student can nominate someone and then there is a group of 6th graders that review all of the applications and select the winners. As Mrs. Liddle said, “I nominated him but most of the school knows how special he is!” Have you ever heard anything better?! I clearly think he’s the most special of all but I love hearing that others think so too! Β πŸ™‚

During the ceremony he was asked to announce the service project for first grade and Mrs. Liddle got this pic…

and then he won the Lancer Leader award! He was the only first grader that got it. There isn’t necessarily one per grade – in fact, the librarian told me that not every grade had a Lancer Leader this year. Such an awesome accomplishment for Maxwell!!

I’m so so proud of my Lancer Leader!

Preschool graduate

May 24, 2018

Spencer is a preschool graduate! His last regular day was last Wednesday…

last day

and while he’s definitely grown up a lot this year, I don’t think he looks that much different than the first day!

Spencer had a fantastic year with Mrs. Beard. He’s a smart kid with excellent handwriting! Seriously, his penmanship is great. He knows a ton of sight words and is mastering some basic reading. He loved all of his class buddies this year – mostly Reedy Reed, Sebastian, CJ, and Drennen. He might have gone to time-out a time or two this year but he also knows how to listen, pay attention, and do what he’s supposed to do and that’s what counts! Β πŸ™‚

Graduation was on Thursday and he was looking sharp…

Just as sharp as Maxwell looked at graduation 2 years ago!

He did an excellent job during the program. He stood still, sang his songs, and didn’t let Sebastian distract him even though he tried pretty hard! ha! Spencer even managed to stay calm after his shoe came off and walked out of the program with one shoe half on! You just never know with Mr. Spencer!!

One of the moms in the class made this cute collage for Mrs. Beard and had each kid answer questions about her…
