Student of the Month

For the last 8 months we have been wondering if Danielle would actually get Student of the Month. Month after Month we wondered. What is the criteria for Student of the month? Especially after seeing it on the school calendar listed according to classroom number. Danielle grumbled many a day "how come I never get student of the month?". I said maybe it has something to do with attendance. She missed at least 3 or 4 days of school over the 3 marking period. So that's what we assumed. Until yesterday! She came home with a student of the month certificate tucked away nicely in her bag. She was so excited she forgot to tell us about it Lol. I asked her how was her day as usual. And she said good. I ask anything special happen at school. She said no. I remembered she had the awards assembly that day so I asked her did she get her honor roll certificate and she said something about the teacher having to do it over. Then she screams. Oh mommy I forget. I got Student of the Month. So proud of this little girl. She is the best kid a mother could ask for.
