Addie

For the last two years Addie has been attending advanced classes at the elementary school. They are for the gifted and talented. These classes are not easy to get into. She had to take a 4 hour test, and get written approval from her 4Th grade teacher. We waited for months to see if she would qualify and sure enough she did. These classes are not easy (especially for the parents) she is already doing junior high work. But she is a straight A student and is really enjoying the classes. Well the opportunity came up for her to try for the program in Junior High (yes she is going to be in 7Th grade next year:( Well several months ago she took the 4 hour test, got written approval from her teacher and then we waited. She didn't feel so good about the test. She thought she did her best but that it probably just wasn't good enough. Well she was wrong. We just got the letter that she is in the program. She was so excited, she couldn't even sit still. We are so proud of her, she is going to do great in these classes. Way to go Addie
