You've Come A Long Way Baby!



Reed has always been our "wild child". He has so much energy
and is always on the go. A while back, Reed said that when he
was made, God put sugar on his brain! It was his way of explaining
why he is always so full of life. With all this extra energy, Reed usually
did not want to take the time to sit and read with us or spend a lot of
time on educational activities. He was way too interested in what game
he was going to play next or what mischief he could get into to worry
about such trivial matters!

In August, Reed began kindergarten. About a month after school began,
Reed was recommended for the Extended Day Kindergarten Program
to help him catch up with kindergarten skills. And catch up he did!
Reed has done so well. He has received a green light every day so far this school year. A green light means that he has been on his best behavior. In December, Reed received the Citizen of the Month award for his Kindergarten class. This award goes to a student that the teacher wants to recognize as being a good role model.Reed recently received his report card for the first semester. He had all 3s,which is the highest rating he could have achieved. Reed's teacher reports that he is always polite and respects others and the school rules and is right on track. Reed is starting to read and write now and doing very well. We are so proud of Reed. More importantly, he is proud of himself. And, believe me, Reed is still having plenty of fun along the way!
