D.A.R.E.

This has continued to be a very eventful day! The 5th graders have been enjoying the DARE program at their school.  It is now coming to an end and they had each 5th grader write an essay about something they have learned from this program.  They then had the opportunity to read their essays aloud in their individual classrooms.  The 'top two' essays from each class were selected to be read at their DARE graduation next Wednesday, the 19th.  Abi's essay was one of the two chosen from her classroom! She was absolutely elated and so was I! She has always claimed writing to be her worst subject - I told her now her worst subject was going to end up being one of her best! She was all smiles.
