2nd Quarter Principal's List! (:

We are sooo proud of Paetin! During the 1st Quarter of school, she received an "Outstanding Achievement Award" for academically standing out in her class. This quarter she was recognized both in the "Top 5" for improvement on criteria, AND "Principal's List"! These were based on assessment tests taken at the beginning of the year, and now. (: Honor roll list was ranked for just above the state average at 38 for LNF (Letter Name Frequency) and 20 LSF (Letter Sound Frequency). Principal's List was ranked of a low of 50 LNF and 40 LSF! We are soo proud of her! And to see that she has increased 49 LNF landing her in the top 5 for her class on improvement! I only hope that Miss Zakarian enjoys her enthusiasm and hard work as much as we do!! (:

The fun doesn't really stop there. Every quarter that you make Principal's List, you receive a "brag tag" (the necklace she is wearing in the photo above). You're supposed to wear your tag to school everyday cause from time to time they might just pop into your class or make an announcement rewarding those with their tags on! Whether that be a panther buck, or a special treat, you NEVER want to miss out on these! This quarter was the first time they have offered Principal's List to the Kindergarten class, so Paetin is completely thrilled to have her tag! Again, we are super proud, and can't wait to see what else she will accomplish this year! (: Weekly spelling tests start this week, and I know Paetin is thrilled! She has been working so hard on correct spelling and punctuation lately with her stories, so I know she'll be so glad to have a chance to excel here! <3 Hope we can continue to help her to succeed from a home front. (:

**Just want to apologize for the funny face she is making in the photo with her Principal, Mrs. Zembruski. She was eating her tootsie roll and wasn't about to stop for a photo's sake. (; But notice how absolutely PROUD she is to hold her rewards out!**
