Third Grade Awards Assembly

Lawson had a wonderful 3rd Grade year...she did great settling in to a new school, making new friends and learning SO many wonderful things!

She LOVED her teacher Mrs. Hill.  She is one of the most dedicated teachers Lawson has had...doing whatever it takes to motivate ALL her students to learn. She would reward them out of her own pocket with cool treats when they scored well on tests, bring in fast food for lunch for them when they met a personal goal, ore reward them with extra recesses!

  Today was their awards ceremony and she racked up.  Making the A/B (she averaged all A's for the year...but had a couple of high B's throughout the year) honor roll, getting a Citizenship award, and a reading award!  Way to go Lawson!

After the ceremony, we went to Lawson's classroom to watch a DVD slide show of pics that her teacher had put together.  She had taken pics all year long.  Mrs. Hill sat down on a little couch over by the window to watch the video. One by one, most of the class relocated themselves over by her.  They SO enjoyed watching the video with her and re-living their year.  Really moving.  I fought back many tears this morning.  Teachers play such an important roll in the lives of their students. 

Lawson, Dad and I are SO proud of all your hard work!  Keep it up!

 Thank you, Mrs. Hill, for caring for my daughter.  We appreciate you making this a wonderful year!
