It's only the beginning of the year but 3rd grade has been great so far! In Kaiya's class they had everyone who was interested in being the ASB representative let the teacher know. Each of the kids had to give a short speech about what they would do for the class. Kaiya's speech went like this...
"I am a good leader because I will encourage all students to have fun and do what they are supposed to do. But at the same time be learning and I will help with all of the school strategies that we use."
After the kids gave their speeches they all voted for 1 boy and 1 girl to be their new ASB representative. Kaiya won the votes for the girl and Mac won the votes for the boy. Mac lives in our neighborhood and is friends with Kaiya. We are super excited for Kaiya! She will have so much fun this year in her new role at school!
P.R.I.D.E.
Kaiya's school has a program named P.R.I.D.E. Each quarter teachers choose a student to receive the award. They will choose one student that best exemplifies the letter...
P- Positive Attitude
R - Respectful
I - Integrity
D - Dependability
E - Effort
The goal is for the student to receive each letter before they leave after 5th grade. There is a very short list of students who have received all the letters over the last few decades. If they do, they get their name on a plaque in the office and they honor you at the assembly (not sure what else they get).
Kaiya received the letter P in 1st grade and in second grade she received the letter D from the music teacher. This year she has already received the letter R! Unfortunately she received the award while I was in the hospital so we couldn't go to the assembly but thankfully my Mom, Ella and her dad were there to support and congratulate her. My mom has pictures on her camera...I will post in the next couple days. We are very proud of Kaiya!
