Ok, Guess i have to find those pictures of Melindas “graduation”!
[parental boasting]
This morning, we were at the school to see Hannah win a new bicycle for her reading performance. “Hey hannah, do you like it?” response “Its only the coolest bicycle I’ve ever had!”
What a great response.
Hannah had the most points in the whole school, and by a longshot. Unfortunatly, no one in the fifth grade even met the goal for the grade.. (100 points). I’ll mention that the school is a good school. It’s in the top 1/4 of performing schools in the state. Not even any of the “gifted and talented” kids had anything on Hannah. I’m wondering about the GT program… Hannah had straight A’s the whole year, 100%’s on the vast majority of her tests and quizzes. In second grade she scored high in math and had a perfect score on the language section of the national testing (indicated as >99th percentile nationally)

And yet she is not in GT. I’m dubious.
The only reason I bring it up is that she inquired to us about it.. “Mom, what is GT? how come I’m not in it?” What are we to say?

Anyway, I’m really looking forward to 4th grade.. we will be able to start doing some really cool science related experimenting and fun stuff on our own time. I hope to get her involved early in the science olympiad.
