Conferences

 This month was school conferences. Amelia is doing very well in school. Her teacher said she is helpful and respectful. She said she doesn't usually give +'s (the exceeds mark) on report cards for behavior but Amelia is so wonderful she got all +'s. I am super proud that she is so diligent and responsible at school.

Jack is doing great in seventh grade. All of his teachers said they enjoy having him in class. He may talk a little too much in class but nothing to worry about. Despite missing a LOT of school this first trimester Jack had no missing assignments and As and Bs. Jack's favorite class is History. He really likes his teacher, Mr. Grimes. Jack says he makes learning fun. 

Jacob is having a great year also. He too had no missing assignments despite the many absents. His teachers all say he produces quality work and is very respectful in class. During conferences his teachers said that they are going to start expecting high school quality work from him. They said he really won't even notice the difference because he is completely capable of adding the small details that high school work requires. I am proud of Jacob for hobbling around school on his crutches. His teachers have all been super nice about letting him leave early and propping his leg up. 

All the kids are succeeding in school right now. I am so proud of their effort and achievement. I hope that by putting in the daily effort will become a lifelong habit.
