May 26 - Ella's 8th grade awards ceremony. She was awarded the following:
The President's Education Award (for all A's throughout middle school)
A Honor Roll for 8th Grade
Student Volunteer Service Award, Bronze Level
The hardest part about the dual language program that Ella has done for the last 9 years is that it brought her to a middle school outside of our community. She will not continue the program in high school which means she will be going to a different high school than the majority of her friends. We are thankful for the close friendships she made in the last 2 years but it makes leaving that much harder. She's really sad about it but excited to continue her time with them this summer and plans to stay in touch in high school. They will be at rival schools and she is already looking forward to future sports against them!
May 27 - Last day of Middle School!
Ella's first and last day of Middle School.
