Promotional - schmotional

Holl had her 8th grade promotional tonight. She had all kinds of awards and atta-girls. The program looked amazingly similar to last years if fact it may have been the exact same except for the different kids who were "Promoted". It is sad to know that for some of those kids (and I think I could point them out... or not) this is as high as they are going to get. Last year something like a dozen or so kids went straight to the "alternative high school" and I think two just plain quit going to school.
This is Holl with her National Junior Honor Society membership card and pin.
Linc also had some honors in track: he was presented with the outstanding Freshman and Future Athlete awards.
