I just think my kids do better while they're in school. Structure works for them needless to say. But all good things must come to an end, right?
First up Harrison is now a 6th grader.....
Harrison had a good year, he did struggle with his grades though. Harrison is a smart boy, however he is easily distracted, and he doesn't always apply himself. He is a young 5th grader only 10, and Brian and I dabbled with the issue of holding him back in school due to his late birthday, however he has managed to make good grades when he tries, so I am certain he can do the work handed to him. Anxious to see what next year will hold for him. Right now he is interested in band, and engineering. I think the more involved he is in school and activities the better off he will be in the long run. Harrison we are so proud of the young boy you are!
Next the crazy red head, Hagan.....
Hagan has done a great job this year as well, however the beginning was a challenge with his behavior. Poor Mrs. Ford had one very hyperactive class to say the least.... Hagan is a silly boy, he only needs to work on the appropriate time to be a cut up, and when it's not the appropriate time to be a cut up. He got an award for most improvement in reading. I wonder why our boys don't like to read? (Brian and I both rather staple our heads to the carpet then to read). Hagan also gets to go to church camp this year all by himself for the first time, he is very excited about that!
Next up Ms. Priss, Haven....
Haven also had trouble with her behavior throughout the year. I'm so thankful that Ms.Scruggs didn't have her arrested for stealing, that seemed to be her theme for the year. How much stuff can I steal a day? Haven is a good girl most of the time, however she can be a very difficult girl other times. Doesn't mean we don't love her, just means she can be difficult. She is smart, and funny! I hope next year we see an improvement with her behavior. Haven will be going to cheer camp this summer, and she will have her 4th dance recital in June (that is if she's not arrested for bad behavior).
Next up.... Hadley
Last but not least Hunter.... my oh my where has the time gone? Our oldest is a senior in high school. makes me so sad, and proud at the same time.
Hunter is an exceptional athlete and I am so proud of his accomplishments on and off the field. He made all county football player, they place second in the state last fall in football. He made all A's for the majority of the year (minus 1 or 2 B's). He played baseball, and was recognized by the city of Somerset for his behavior and accomplishments as a student, earning a special seal on his diploma. He also received class awards although I still don't know what all for. Again I am one proud Momma. Hunter loves God, and is growing in his relationship with Christ each day. We have high expectations of him, and Hunter has a bright future in whatever he decides to do.
