Student of the Month!!

Alexa received the Student of the Month Principal's award today. She was the first child nominated in the Kindergarten class (of ~100 Kindergartners) of this school year. She received this award for her standout attitude exhibiting respect, kindness, great enthusiasm, and always there to lend a helping hand.
The school called me last week to let me know, so francis and surprised her by attending that assembly with the award. She was just beaming with excitement.
Alexa is always a stand-out to me, but amazing to see the school recognize it too! ❤️💋
