Emily

Emily's been having quite the year at JI.  She finally got a character of the month award (Rachel got one back in October) and she played basketball which I think she actually enjoyed.  The team celebrated their end of the season (a losing one..no wins) with a parent vs. kids game, awards and a pizza party.  Even though the girls didn't win a game they still smiled and had a lot of fun and had a winning attitude. (thanks coaches).  She also got a glimpse into a 6th graders life, getting to do line leading duties, while the 6th grade was on an extended field trip to Wolf Ridge.  She along with the other 5th graders found out pretty quickly that they are not always respected or listened to.  Huh? Kind of like being a parent?  She and 3 others shared responsibility for the Kdg class which you'd think would be the easiest.. Not this class..these kids aren't shy coming into a new school and aren't afraid of being the littlest!
