One Smart Kid!

Early last week, Rion came home from school actually excited to take the state mandated tests. He said his teacher made them a deal...if they scored in the Advanced category in all three areas (math, language, reading), then the only homework they would have the rest of the school year was their daily reading log. Oh he was excited because when they took the ISATs during the winter, he was just a couple of points away from the Advanced category.

A couple of days later, he came home with a note from his teacher asking for our permission to uphold that promise - because he scored Advanced in all three areas. We are so proud of him for working so hard! He is also so excited to only have to read every night this last month of school. I hope this excitement for doing well in school continues through high school!
