6th Grade Graduation

I can't believe Jace will be in Jr. High next year! Time flies...I remember feeling really old the year he started Kindergarten...where does that put me now...ancient, I suppose! Here are a few pics of Jace the evening of graduation and the awards ceremony the next day. Jace was awarded a Presidential award. It is a special award for the top CRT test scores nationwide. I don't really understand all of the stipulations for getting it but I guess it is pretty stringent. He got a special certificate with a gold presidential seal on it signed by President Bush and the Education Secretary (I think). He was one of 6 kids in his class to get it...pretty cool for a kid who had a REALLY difficult time keeping up on assignments and getting them in on time. Maybe testing is his thing! Onward to Jr. High! Way to go Jace! Oh, green shorts is Jace doing the Haka and another 'dance' during the school dance festival.
